AB 355

The bill provides that every public notice of a legislative committee meeting and

every published agenda of a committee meeting must include the following text: “If

you need an interpreter, a translator, materials in alternative formats, or other

accommodations to observe or participate in the meeting, please contact the

legislative office of the committee chairperson.” The notice must be printed in

English, Spanish, and Hmong. The notice must also include the telephone number

and e-mail address of the legislative office of the committee chairperson. If

accommodations are requested, the committee chairperson must ensure that the

accommodations are provided.

The bill also requires the chief clerk of each house of the legislature to ensure

that the text appears on the legislature's Internet site, including specifically on any

committee calendar page on the Internet site, and that it appears in English,

Spanish, and Hmong.
