Good step toward clear communication, though time will tell if it’s actually enforced.

Justice shouldn’t end at the cell door—this bill demands transparency where it matters most.

Because families deserve the dignity of knowing, even when the system tries to hide the truth.

Ensuring notification sounds good until it gets tangled in red tape and endless regulations.

Transparency in custody isn’t controversial; it’s just common decency in government.

Finally, a bill that treats incarcerated people like humans, not just numbers behind bars.

Seems fair—nobody likes to be left in the dark over a loved one’s fate.

I support families getting info, but don’t expect this bill to reform custody or fix bigger problems.
