What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Currently, the Department of Administration (DOA) is directed to promulgate

and enforce rules of conduct for property that is leased or managed by DOA, which

includes the state capitol building. The rules may prescribe penalties for violations

within certain limitations specified by law.

This bill provides that DOA shall not enforce any rule or policy relating to public

access to the state capitol building that would infringe upon the rights of any resident

of this state under the U.S. Constitution and the constitution of this state to freedom

of speech or assembly or to petition the government.
