This past week, some fed-judge ordered by the end of 2029.....Texas state prisons must provide air conditioning for the prisons.
I paused over this.
He doesn't say who pays for it....nor how the monthly electrical cost will be covered. The structures geared to 'add' AC? I would imagine just a survey would require 12 months minimum.
Forty-nine other states? Not required (yet).
Where this came from? Well....from 2023 to 2025....there's nine inmates who got dehydrated and passed away. If you went back to 2000? There's probably forty additional folks.
Electrical bills doubling (minimum) for the prison system? I would imagine so.
