The Des Moines Register • October 22, 2009


DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS
This department, which receives little funding from any sources besides the state’s general fund, would lose by far the most jobs under the plan submitted Wednesday. The state’s nine prisons, which house 8,400 inmates, would have fewer correctional officers to monitor convicts and provide treatment, counseling and conduct programs to help prepare inmates for release, state officials said.

• Jobs before cut: 4,200

• Amount cut: $36 million

• Total positions eliminated: 777
Layoffs: 515
Open jobs cut: 262

• Budget after cuts: $321 million
