Ensuring Work Opportunities in Correctional Facilities Act of 2023

This bill authorizes $210 million annually (2024-2029) for the Bureau of Prisons to expand vocational training and occupational education programs for incarcerated individuals. It also allocates $10 million, $70 million, and $20 million annually for related programs under the Omnibus Crime Control Act, Second Chance Act, and new vocational grants. The law requires annual public reports starting in 2026 to evaluate program effectiveness in teaching job skills and improving post-release employment prospects. It directly affects incarcerated people in federal facilities by increasing access to work-based training programs.
