MINOR

The bill was amended to add eight new sponsors and update the committee referral process to include the Committee on Ways and Means. A key substantive change updates the required date for publishing commissary price lists from June 1, 2025, to June 1, 2026, likely to align with the upcoming fiscal year.

Scope change

The bill's scope of sponsorship was expanded to include eight additional legislators, and its procedural path now involves the Committee on Ways and Means in addition to the Committee on Correction.

ELIGIBILITY

Eight new legislators (Shrestha, Romero, Lasher, Forrest, Sayegh, Gallagher, Cruz, and Meeks) were added to the list of bill sponsors.

TIMELINE

The deadline for publishing commissary price lists was changed from June 1, 2025, to June 1, 2026.
