Requires the commissioner of corrections and community supervision to permanently terminate the conjugal visit program, commonly known as the family reunion program; directs such commissioner to prohibit the establishment of any program designed to provide selected inmates and their families the opportunity to privately meet for an extended period of time.

This bill aims to end the conjugal visit program in New York, which allows certain inmates to have private visits with their families. If passed, it would stop any future programs that provide similar opportunities for inmates to spend extended time with their loved ones.

Supporters of the bill argue that it will enhance security within correctional facilities and prevent potential abuses of the system. They believe that eliminating conjugal visits is a necessary step to maintain order and discipline among inmates.

Critics contend that this bill undermines the family connections of inmates, which are crucial for rehabilitation and reducing recidivism. They argue that maintaining these relationships through private visits can lead to better outcomes for both inmates and society as a whole.
