TO: | Honorable James White, Chair, House Committee on Corrections |
FROM: | John McGeady, Assistant Director Sarah Keyton, Assistant Director Legislative Budget Board |
IN RE: | HB1377 by Dutton (relating to the creation of a commission to review certain laws of this state that restrict the rights or activities of persons convicted of a felony offense and to make certain recommendations regarding those laws.), Committee Report 1st House, Substituted |
The provisions of the bill addressed by this analysis would create a commission to review certain laws of this state that restrict the rights or activities of persons convicted of a felony offense and make recommendations regarding those laws.
The bill does not expressly create a felony offense, increase the punishment for an existing misdemeanor to that of a felony, increase the punishment for an existing felony offense or category of felony level offenses, or change the eligibility of a person for felony community supervision, parole, or mandatory supervision. This analysis assumes the provisions of the bill would not result in a significant impact on state correctional populations or the demand for state correctional resources.
