The committee reviewed Proposed Introduction 246A, which would require the Department of Correction to explain and return incarcerated people’s institutional funds at release and address fund transfers between facilities. On a roll-call vote, the committee adopted the measure, 5–0, with no abstentions; the chair then paused the hearing to move to an oversight hearing.
The committee examined mental-health care in city jails, including specialized housing, missed appointments and lock-ins, discharge planning, and gender-aligned housing. Members heard administration, agency, and public testimony on children visiting incarcerated relatives and community-based services; a continuation roll-call vote on proposed Introduction 246A passed 6–0. No decision on the hearing’s featured bills was recorded.
