SB 830

This bill provides that if a legislative proposal directly or substantially affects

any of the following, DOA must prepare an economic impact statement on the

proposal within 30 days of the proposal's introduction: crimes or criminal penalties;

first class cities; primary or secondary education; public benefits; local government

procurement policies; or probation, parole, or extended supervision. The economic

impact analysis must contain information about the economic effects of the proposal

on racial groups, economic classes, and gender groups. The bill further provides that

the economic impact statement must contain a finding on whether the proposal has

a disparate impact on any racial groups, economic classes, or gender groups.

Under the bill, a proposal that requires an economic impact statement must

have that requirement noted on its jacket when the jacket is prepared. In addition,

under the bill, when a proposal that requires an economic impact statement is

introduced, the LRB must submit a copy of the proposal to DOA.

Finally, the bill provides that no proposal that requires an economic impact

statement may be passed or adopted by either house until DOA has prepared the

economic impact statement and the economic impact statement has been distributed

to the legislature.
