Requires State to lower compensation rate of civilly committed sexually violent predators to same level as State inmates for institutional work.

S 96 requires civilly committed sexually violent predators in New Jersey to be paid the same rate for work in state facilities as State inmates - currently below minimum wage - instead of the current minimum wage. This aligns their compensation with State inmates for comparable roles like kitchen or laundry work. The bill implements a State Auditor recommendation, projecting an annual savings of approximately $1.9 million by eliminating minimum wage payments for this group. It directly affects individuals under New Jersey's civil commitment system for sexually violent predators.
