Resolve, Directing the Department of Corrections to Study Achieving Gender Equality |

AI Summary

This bill directs the Department of Corrections to conduct a comprehensive study to identify and understand gender inequality within its programs, services, facilities, and policies. The department is required to report its findings, along with proposed solutions for eliminating such inequality, to the Joint Standing Committee on Criminal Justice and Public Safety by December 3, 2025. These solutions could involve changes to physical facilities, such as building new ones or repurposing existing ones, as well as adjusting how resources, programs, and opportunities are distributed. Following this report, the joint standing committee may then propose new legislation to the 132nd Legislature based on the study's recommendations.
