Bill > HB4720

This bill creates the Statewide Meaningful Language Access Coordination Act, which requires the Office of Global Michigan to coordinate steps taken by state agencies (referred to as "covered entities") to provide meaningful language access to public services for individuals with limited English proficiency, as defined in the existing Meaningful Language Access to State Services Act. The bill also establishes a complaint process for individuals who believe they have been denied full and equal access to a covered entity due to their national origin, to be addressed in collaboration with the Department of Civil Rights.
