Thanks for asking about that, Andrea-I was interested in the same. I'm not familiar with this source (NonDoc Media) but FWIW this article<https://nondoc.com/2020/01/17/oklahoma-prison-telemarketing-contracts/> makes mentions of OCI paying inmates $1.45/hr for telemarketing in 2020.

CAUTION: This email originated from outside of the City of South Portland Mail System. Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe.
I would also like to know how much inmates are being paid for their work. Much has been written about forced labor in US prisons, although I'm having difficulty finding information as it pertains directly to Oklahoma Correctional Industries. Does anyone have third-party information about this company?

Thanks, all!

well, the elephant in this room is that we will be sending high school
yearbooks to a correctional facility in Oklahoma to be scanned.
