SB 726 Wisconsin Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Relating to: Department of Corrections reporting of complaints in state correctional institutions and making an appropriation. (FE)

SB 726 requires the Department of Corrections to create an interactive website system that updates complaint data from state correctional facilities every 72 hours. The system must show the total number of annual complaints per facility and display all complaint details broken down by type (without personal information), making it searchable by category. The bill appropriates $70,000 for fiscal year 2025-26 and $30,000 for 2026-27 to establish and operate this reporting system. This directly affects state correctional institutions by mandating transparent, real-time public reporting of inmate and staff complaints.
