An Act To Amend The Law Governing Racial Impact Statements
This bill amends state law to require legislative staff to gather demographic data from state agencies regarding legislation before committees. To support this effort, the bill creates a temporary position for a Legislative Analyst in the Office of Policy and Legal Analysis to help collect and organize this information. The legislation also appropriates specific funds to cover the salary and related costs for this new role, which will end in June 2028.
