Session: 2023-2024
ACLU-PA Position: Supports
HB 1678 (PN 2812) would amend Title 61 Chapter 11. General Administration to establish the Earned Vocational Training and Education Credit to allow people incarcerated in state facilities to earn vocational and educational credits against their minimum sentence.
These credits would count towards reducing their sentence—10-180 days, depending on the program—making them eligible for parole or short sentence parole earlier than they would otherwise be.
