Relating to the continuation of the Task Force on Consolidation of Workforce and Social Services.
SB 1228 extends the lifespan of the Task Force on Consolidation of Workforce and Social Services by delaying its expiration from September 1, 2025, to September 1, 2027. The bill also modifies the task force's reporting requirements, mandating an annual report to the legislature by December 31 of each even-numbered year. The report must detail the task force's activities, its consolidation plan for workforce and social services, and its findings and recommendations. This procedural bill directly affects the task force and the legislature, with no new policy changes beyond extending the current process.
