This is Bilal Abdul-Salam Bey at the Hudson Correctional Facility. This piece is about the Kansas freedom bill called Kansas' Healthcare, Education, Rehabilitation, and Re-entry Preparedness Bill Part 1. Section 1: be it enact a law that, by December  15th, 2021, Kansas Department of Corrections will reduce this prison population down to its designed capacity. Due to the ill effects of COVID-19 inside KDOC, prisoners who have the following health problems should be release from prison immediately: Bronchitis, TB, Asthma, HepC, HIV and Diabetes. Prisoners are more prone to get COVID-19 than others due to us being confined in closed spaces. We don't have enough room to practice social distancing. For these obvious reasons, the secretary of KDOC is ordered by this law to release no less than 100 prisoners per month per year beginning January 15th, 2021 until the prison population is reduced to its current designed capacity. Section 2: be it also enacted that a moratorium shall issue upon the passage of this bill
