The 2025-26 Budget: California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation

Feb 25, 2025 - The Governor ’s budget reflects adjustments to 2024 ‑25 spending, largely from the General Fund, that result in a net increase of $51  million. The current ‑year net increase in costs is primarily due to both a higher total prison population and an increase in the portion of the population with high health care needs relative to what was assumed in the 2024 ‑25  Budget Act .
