Some small corrections: there is currently only a resolution on the table to break Aramark's monopoly. However, in-person visitation is something the abolition group will continue to fight for.

Also, thanks to Ryan Clancy's efforts, the comissary prices have substantially improved. Inmates are now paying roughly 125% markups as opposed to the 200-300% markups they were paying before. However, breaking Aramark's monopoly is still crucial to ensure that prisoners get adequate food in the cafeteria.
