Maddy summaryThis bill bans state-chartered banks from financing or investing in private prisons. It directly affects all state-chartered banking institutions by prohibiting them from providing loans, purchasing stocks, or funding any entity that operates a private correctional facility (a facility that would be illegal under existing state law if located in the state). The law applies to all new or modified contracts starting immediately upon enactment. This creates a clear policy change restricting financial support for private prison operations within the state's banking sector.

Maddy summaryThis bill requires all public water systems serving at least 15 year-round residents to replace every lead service line (the pipe connecting a water main to a building) by November 1, 2037. It directly affects homeowners, renters, and property owners in communities with lead pipes, as water systems must cover all replacement costs at no direct charge to customers - though water rate increases may fund the program. Water systems must offer free replacement, provide access to properties for work, and allow property owners 45 days to opt out by handling their portion themselves (with inspection). The law also defines "lead status unknown" lines and prohibits partial replacements that leave lead pipe in place.
