Cutbacks In The Warehouse

Nashvillest on the effect of budget cuts on the prison system:

[W]e’re now beginning to see the effects of all the slicing and dicing, particularly in the Tennessee prison system which expects to lose around $50M or 8% of their budget. They’re not sure how they’re going to cope, but expect to rely more heavily on volunteers for rehabilitation programs and classes. Metro schools are also looking at a significant cut of $3M by the middle of the month to try and close in on the $11.1M deficit they’ve built up.
