印地安那州监狱面临财政紧张, Indiana jails face financial strain as state runs out of funds to pay for holding prisoners.

印地安那州惩教署已耗尽资金, 无法支付收押低级重罪犯及州囚犯的县级监狱费用, Indiana's Department of Correction has run out of funds to pay county jails for holding low-level felons and state prisoners, leaving jails unpaid for months with four more months in the fiscal year. 该州提前花掉了 3400 万美元的年度预算，治安官正在敦促建立新的计费系统并提高每日津贴费率，以缓解财务压力。 The state spent its $34 million annual budget early, and sheriffs are pressing for a new billing system and increased per diem rates to ease the financial strain. 立法者正在考虑提供回薪,并将每日津贴从每天40美元提高到43美元。 Lawmakers are considering offering back pay and raising the per diem rate from $40 to $43 per day.
