Ugh... That legal argument is not a good look, for sure. I'm actually loosely in favor of the program in general--it's entirely voluntary, and the few prisoners I've seen interviewed about it all say they enjoy the work and like feeling useful. It's certainly more rehabilitative than sitting in a cell all day. But prohibiting them from being firefighters after they get out is beyond stupid.
