SB-91: reduce prison population by 20%

Summary by Anchorage Daily News, 10/23/17: SB-91 will reduce the number of people in prison & cut correctional costs without compromising public safety. SB-91 reduces jail as a penalty for most common crimes including reclassifying drug crimes, with the aim of focusing prison beds on more violent offenders. Similar reforms have been in place in 31 states since 2007. SB91 has reduced Alaska's prison population by 20% in its first year.

State of the State speech by Gov. Dunleavy, 1/22/19: "Crime is out of control. We will repeal and replace SB91. A series of bills will not only roll back SB91, but will help Alaska turn the corner to a safer tomorrow. I'm asking our legislators to make public safety a priority and move forward with due diligence on reviewing and considering this public safety package."

Legislative Outcome:Passed House 28-10-2 on 5/11/16; State Rep. Kreiss-Tomkins voted YES; passed Senate 14-5-1 on 5/13; signed by Gov. Bill Walker 7/11/16
