AB 622: Parole: minimum eligible date.
What AB 622 does, verified February 3, 2026
The bill aims to amend the parole process in California by requiring the department of corrections and rehabilitation to apply all applicable credits to reduce the minimum term or minimum period of confinement for inmates with life sentences. This means that inmates will be eligible for parole sooner, as the minimum term will be reduced based on good behavior, educational achievements, and other rehabilitative efforts. The bill also requires the board of parole hearings to consider reports from the probation officer when making parole decisions.
