Bill Summary
Generally revise human rights laws
AI Summary
This bill generally revises Montana's human rights laws. It amends two sections of the Montana Code Annotated (MCA) to prohibit discrimination by the state or its political subdivisions based on factors like race, religion, sex, age, or disability, unless there are reasonable grounds. The bill also requires state and local government agencies to analyze their operations for potential discrimination and initiate programs to address any issues found. Importantly, the bill clarifies that the supervision, administration, or treatment of youth or adult prisoners does not constitute a "service" that is subject to these non-discrimination requirements.
