But Celeste admits that by the time HB 150 passed the House, the bill didn't look quite as they'd imagined.

There have been a number of different versions of this bill in previous sessions that actually had broader language that looked at including age and medical need.

The legislature didn't seem interested in taking a look at finding relief based on whether you were old or whether you were sick.

And so the strategy was to narrow the bill language to just have medical criteria included.

Here's Celeste Trustee again.

Prisons were not meant to be nursing homes, but that's what it has become, right? Our prisons have ended up becoming something where you walk in and you see people in wheelchairs who have complete mobility issues.

You see people in walkers.

You see people who are unable to care for themselves.
