This bill addresses budget deficiencies within the Minnesota Department of Corrections by appropriating funds for various programs and initiatives. It amends previous legislation to specify the amounts allocated for different purposes, including $12,643,000 for operating deficiencies, $1,000,000 for a body-worn camera program, and $1,500,000 for upgrades to the ARMER radio system. The bill also includes funding for compliance with the Prison Rape Elimination Act, health services, educational programming, family support, and reentry initiatives, among others. Notably, it introduces new appropriations for technology modernization and the establishment of a supervised release board.

Additionally, the bill makes several deletions and insertions to existing law, such as changing the allocation for corrections safety and security investments and adjusting the base appropriations for various programs starting in fiscal year 2026. It also allows for reallocations of funds for other financial obligations in fiscal year 2025. The bill is set to take effect the day following its final enactment and includes a specific appropriation of $9,091,000 for operating deficiencies in incarceration and prerelease services for fiscal year 2025, which can be transferred to other programs within the department if unspent.
