2018 House Bill 5926 ↩

Senate Roll Call 925: Passed

To revise details of a <a href="http://www.michiganvotes.org/2013-HB-5216">certificate of employability</a> authorized for prisoners being released from prison under a 2014 law, which asserts that a prisoner has behaved well in prison, got counseling, earned a GED, and met other criteria. The bill would repeal a four year validity period specified on the certificates, and make them valid unless revoked. It would also revise the requirement that a prisoner complete a career and technical course, allowing this condition to be met by getting either getting a college associate degree while in prison or completing 36 credit hours of college courses in prison.
