HOUSE RESOLUTION 589 Offered by Representative Madigan: WHEREAS, There are over 48,000 adults and juveniles incarcerated in 36 correctional facilities run by the State of Illinois; and WHEREAS, Despite problems of overcrowding and understaffing, these prisons have an excellent record of maintaining the public safety; and WHEREAS, In other states where private prisons have made encroachments, correctional security has often been significantly compromised, resulting in more serious injuries to staff and inmates, as well as a growing number of inmate escapes; and
[January 9, 2002] 18 WHEREAS, One of the primary causes of such unsafe conditions in private prisons is the poor training, high turnover, and low compensation of their employees; and WHEREAS, The Illinois General Assembly has recognized that "issues of liability, accountability, and cost warrant a prohibition of the ownership, operation, or management of correctional facilities by for-profit contractors" by its enactment of a moratorium against private prisons; and WHEREAS, In spite of that moratorium, attempts are still being made to privatize operations of the State's correctional facilities through incremental measures; and WHEREAS, The Department of Corrections currently contracts out medical services at its facilities, which has led to difficulty in recruiting and retaining health care professionals and hardships for employees, including bounced pay checks from fly-by-night contractors; and WHEREAS, Governor Ryan has proposed the privatization of a number of important functions that impact prison security at all Illinois Department of Corrections prisons, including dietary and commissary functions; and WHEREAS, The privatization of such functions would be detrimental to the efficient and secure function of these facilities and is therefore contrary to the intent of the Private Correctional Facility Moratorium Act; therefore, be it RESOLVED, BY THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES OF THE NINETY-SECOND GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS, that the State of Illinois affirms its commitment to a secure, safe, and effective State prison system by forestalling efforts to incrementally privatize operations of the Department of Corrections; and be it further RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives opposes Governor Ryan's proposal to privatize the dietary and commissary functions at the Illinois Department of Corrections prisons; and be it further RESOLVED, That the Department of Corrections shall, prior to the privatization of the dietary and commissary functions at a State of Illinois correctional facility, seek bids for any services that are normally performed by employees of the Department of Corrections; and be it further RESOLVED, That a suitable copy of this resolution be delivered to the Director of Corrections.
