Alabama Governor Kay Ivey has placed her signature on legislation that allows COVID-19 relief funds to build new prisons in the state, a move she calls “a pivotal moment for the trajectory of our state’s criminal justice system,” per The Hill’s Jordan Williams.
The legislature convened a special session on Monday to debate a $1.3 billion building plan to construct three new prisons and refurbish existing ones, with $400 million being financed with funds from the $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan.
