Summary
The bill changes state law to allow parolees to be charged up to $50 per month for supervision, instead of the current $40 cap. It applies to anyone under parole supervision in West Virginia, including out‑of‑state or federal parolees, and ties the fee to each individual's financial situation. The extra revenue is meant to help cover the costs of supervising parolees.
