State Senator Jason Plummer has sent a letter to the Governor and the Director of the Illinois Department of Corrections looking for some answers to several questions about the Vandalia and Pontiac Correctional Centers.
The letter starts off by saying that “Due to recent transfers of significant numbers of inmates out of the Pontiac and Vandalia Correctional Centers, there is significant concern in these communities about the future of those facilities. As both of these correctional centers serve as some of the largest employers in their respective regions, any changes to staffing or inmate population levels would have a major impact on the economic health of those areas.” The letter goes on to ask for clarification on a number of issues in regards to the two facilities. The letter is also signed by several other legislators, including State Representative Blaine Wilhour.
