Maine LD590 mandates the collection of racial and demographic data from state agencies for legislative committees.

Maine LD590 requires nonpartisan legislative staff to gather racial and demographic data from state agencies for use in legislation before joint standing or select committees. This data collection aims to inform the legislative process with demographic insights. The bill amends MRSA §163-A, sub-§7 to include this new responsibility for legislative staff.
