California Sentencing Commission

The Governor proposes to create the California Sentencing Commission to review and make recommendations on sentencing guidelines. The Commission, which will be permanent, will include the Attorney General, the Secretary of the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, and 15 members appointed by the Governor representing various stakeholders including the Legislature, law enforcement, victims, labor, and other groups. The Commission will act as a clearinghouse and information center for sentencing, review proposed legislation affecting sentencing, and submit recommendations on sentencing guidelines to the Legislature each year. In the first year, the Commission will focus on California's parole system. The Budget includes $457,000 General Fund for the Commission.
