What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Currently, the Public Records Board supervises the state's public records

management and preservation programs and may set retention schedules for public

records. However, the records and correspondence of any member of the legislature

are excluded from the definition of “public records” for public records retention

purposes. This bill eliminates that exclusion.
