Expenditures - Federal Corrections

Million, Budget, New, Federal, Facilities, Corrections, States, and Open

The Budget of the United States for Fiscal Year 2006 proposes $4.75 billion in budget authority for corrections (Washington, DC: Office of Management and Budget, February 2005). Included in this proposal are $85 million to open three new federal prisons and to expand two other facilities, $37 million to pay for the added costs of almost 4,300 inmates in existing facilities, and $20 million for 1,600 new private contract beds. Historically, actual outlays tend to be slightly below authorizations as Congress debates the amounts to be spent.
