CDCR Book Bans – AB 1986 (Bryan)

Assembly Bill 1986 was introduced by Assemblymember Bryan. This bill will require the Inspector General (OIG) to post the list of books that have been banned by CDCR on the office’s internet website. It will empower the OIG’s office to determine if a banned book or publication violates the department’s regulations. The office will be able to notify CDCR if it does not agree with the department’s determination that a publication that it has reviewed under the section violates department regulations.
