未来形

Can you respond, Cary to what's happening in New York state to President to Ah, Governor Cuomo, announcing that its prisoners who are going to create are gonna make what he called New York clean.

現在進行形

Now people know around the country the shortage of pure Oh, right now explain what that is and if the prisoners themselves would get to use it and what it means for prisoners to be making an essential product like that and what they're being paid.

So in New York prisons, theat bridge pay is around 60 to 63 cents an hour.

Um, and I think it's many great meadow that are going to be producing this.

You know, there's a lot of prison industries that are making things like license plates and stuff.

But you know, that means that we have a lot of, you know, predominantly black and brown people who are being paid less than a dollar an hour.

And if you don't go to work, you typically get a ticket, you get written up, you face the possibility of punishment.

So, you know, I think that's sort of a dynamic we need to be aware of when we're thinking of how this plays out, but also in the case of something like, you know, pure LR, the state equivalent of Purell.

And I see that when he announced this, Governor Cuomo said that it would be available in schools and prisons.

And I've been, you know, asking the prison system since then if they were going to allow inmates to use it, because when I was there, you know, when I when I did time in prison, you're not allowed to have alcohol based hand sanitizer.

And, you know, from looking at the rules that they still have online, it doesn't look like alcohol based hand sanitizer is allowed.

 And you know, so far, the prison system has been ignoring my questions and questions from other reporters about whether they're going to change that and actually allow prisoners to utilize the product that they're making for less than a dollar an hour.
