Summary

The bill rewrites the definition of restrictive housing, caps how long anyone can be held in it, and requires at least four hours of daily out‑of‑cell time. It also bars any member of a listed vulnerable population—from minors to pregnant people and those with serious disabilities—from being placed in such housing at all. The changes aim to make confinement less punitive and more health‑focused.
