inmate telephone system service contracts.
SB 1775 prohibits Arizona's Department of Corrections from entering inmate telephone service contracts that allow revenue exceeding reasonable operating costs. It bans specific terms like commissions, profit sharing, signing bonuses, inflated rent payments, or unrelated technology supplies. The bill directly affects the state department managing inmate phone services by restricting how it can contract with providers. This change aims to prevent excessive charges for phone services used by incarcerated individuals and their families.
