ties from using jamming equipment.
The bill argues that jamming equipment is a necessary tool for correctional facilities to prevent inmates from using unauthorized cell phones to commit crimes or coordinate illegal activities both inside and outside of the prison walls. By allowing correctional facilities to utilize jamming equipment, the bill seeks to enhance safety and security within these facilities.
In addition to permitting the use of jamming equipment, the bill also includes provisions for the FCC to work with correctional facilities to ensure that the use of such equipment does not interfere with legitimate communication services in the surrounding areas. Overall, Bill 119 s 1137 aims to empower correctional facilities to effectively manage and control the use of cell phones by inmates, while also addressing potential concerns related to interference with communication services outside of the facilities.
