Florida’s bipartisan corrections data law: A model for Wisconsin
Join the Badger Institute, Florida House Speaker Chris Sprowls and Right on Crime-Florida Director Chelsea Murphy this Thursday, January 7.
The Wisconsin Department of Corrections is one of the largest expenditures in the state budget. Policies related to criminal justice affect our safety, our communities, our workforce and more. But tracking their effectiveness is hampered by a shortage of uniform data collection and reporting. State policymakers interested in improving our understanding of this complex system should consider Florida's Criminal Justice Transparency Initiative, the nation's most comprehensive criminal justice data law.
Join the Badger Institute this Thursday, Jan. 7, 2021, at 10 a.m. CT for a virtual discussion with Florida House Speaker Chris Sprowls, author of the bill, and Right on Crime Florida State Director Chelsea Murphy.
In a conversation moderated by Badger Institute policy analyst Julie Grace, they will discuss what the bill does, how they passed such a substantial measure with bipartisan support and what advice they would give Wisconsin lawmakers.
