Returning citizen employment requirements and incentives
Prince George's County
Summary
Two bills moved forward: CB-101 requires 5% of new hires on large county contracts be returning citizens (as amended), and CB-102 doubles and speeds up employer reimbursements under the re-entry incentive program. Both aim to cut recidivism and expand job pathways.

Impact analysis
CB-101 has no direct fiscal impact; CB-102 could have a slightly adverse impact since the existing $500,000 fund currently goes unused, and higher reimbursements may increase claims.
Residents returning from incarceration seeking employment, plus employers who get reimbursed for hiring them.
