California AB2360 mandates state agencies to use plain language in all documents produced after January 1, 2027.
California AB2360 requires state agencies to write documents in plain language, avoiding technical jargon and ensuring readability for all audiences. Each agency must designate a point of contact for public input on document readability and adopt a plain language policy on their website. The bill defines "plain language" as clear, jargon-free communication accessible to individuals with disabilities or limited English proficiency. State agencies may use standards from the Office of Data and Innovation to implement these requirements.
