威斯康星州：州长称监狱系统重整成本升至约5.85亿美元 完工推迟至2032年
威斯康星州州长 Tony Evers 10月21日发布消息称，该州监狱系统重整计划的成本将比原先估算高出约80%，总成本升至约5.85亿美元，完工时间推迟至2032年底。
该计划包括关闭有128年历史的 Green Bay 惩教所、重建 Waupun 惩教所并重新配置州内其他监狱。Evers 表示，成本上升源于计划审批被拖延了约20个月，期间建筑成本持续上涨。
州众议员 Benjamin Franklin 对州长给出的成本数字提出质疑，认为涨幅说法不实；州参议员 Jamie Wall 则表示，该计划事关公共安全，不应再拖延。惩教系统重整是该州近年来争议较大的基建议题之一。
Wisconsin: Governor Says Prison Overhaul Will Cost About $585 Million, Finish in 2032
Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers announced on October 21 that the state's prison overhaul plan will cost about 80% more than originally projected, rising to roughly $585 million, with completion now expected in late 2032.
The plan includes closing the 128-year-old Green Bay Correctional Institution, rebuilding Waupun Correctional Institution and reconfiguring other state prisons. Evers attributed the higher cost to a roughly 20-month delay in approving the plan, during which construction costs kept rising.
State Representative Benjamin Franklin questioned the governor's figures, while State Senator Jamie Wall said the plan is a public-safety issue that should not be delayed further. The corrections overhaul has been one of the state's most debated infrastructure issues in recent years.
