From the supplier: An increasing number of offenders are entering the US prison system leading to prison population booms in many state corrections systems. The notable rise in prisoners would thus entail increased corrections spending. Based on statistics for the 1990s, there had been a significant growth in state corrections budgets. Observers believe that the level of state appropriations for corrections will likely increase in the future.
