“Receiving unanimous support from the House Education Committee sends a resounding message that we recognize the issues affecting our communities and that change is imperative,” said Representative Brass. “Advancing this bill is one of many recent events that confirms the faith I have in our legislation to advance our state in every way, including to make hiring practices more equitable for qualified minority and woman candidates.” |
