Bill Summary
A BILL for an Act to amend and reenact subsection 2 of section 12-48-03.1 of the North Dakota Century Code, relating to the sale of products made in prison industries.
AI Summary
This bill amends North Dakota law to expand the sales options for products made in prison industries by adding a new provision that allows prison industries-made products to be sold to state employees within the state for personal use. Currently, prison industries can sell their products to governmental agencies, nonprofit organizations, inmates, and through wholesale or retail outlets with sales tax permits, as well as in interstate and international markets under specific federal certification. The bill maintains existing sales channels while creating an additional direct sales opportunity for state employees to purchase prison industry products for their personal use. This change could potentially increase revenue for prison industries and provide state employees with an additional purchasing option for goods manufactured by incarcerated workers.
