Texas SB2338 amends work-for-time credit rules for parolees and those on mandatory supervision.

Texas SB2338 modifies the Texas Government Code to adjust work-for-time credit rules for individuals released on parole or mandatory supervision. Parolees and those on mandatory supervision can earn time credits by working 140 hours or being enrolled in specific programs. Credits reduce the time they must serve. Credits are denied if earned during violations of parole or supervision conditions or shortly before the end of the supervision period. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice must establish a system to track these credits by January 1, 2026.
