If enacted, the proposal would require corrections officials to recommend revoking supervision when a person on probation, parole, or extended supervision is charged with a crime.

More detail
Corrections officials would have to recommend revoking a person's probation, parole, or extended supervision when that person is charged with a crime. This applies to people on extended supervision, parole, or probation who are charged with a crime. A criminal charge would trigger a recommendation; it would not automatically revoke supervision. If enacted, this would first apply to charges filed on the proposal's effective date.
