This photo from June 5, 2003 shows the Lincoln Correctional Center in Lincoln, Neb. The state's new tough-on-meth law is fueling an expensive surge in Nebraska's prison population, causing some lawmakers to push for more community corrections programs as an alternative to prison for some drug offenders. In a pre-session survey of Nebraska's 49 lawmakers by The Associated Press, 39 supported expanding such programs rather than building and expanding Nebraska's prisons. New and expanded prisons would cost an estimated $384 million by 2025 if the prison population grows at the current rate.(AP Photo/Nati Harnik)
