Texas prisons must install air conditioning by 2029, court rules
Original: Texas prisons must install air conditioning by 2029 following federal court ruling
A federal court ruling requires Texas to install air conditioning in its prisons by 2029. The decision follows years of complaints about extreme heat inside facilities, where temperatures can become dangerous during Texas summers. Officials will now need to fund and complete cooling upgrades across the state prison system within the court-imposed deadline.
Why now: A federal court has just mandated air conditioning in all Texas prisons by 2029, a major change for one of the largest US prison systems.
