AI Summary
This bill establishes the "Study Commission on Grandparents Raising Grandchildren" to comprehensively examine the challenges faced by grandparents who are raising their grandchildren. The commission will consist of 20 members appointed by various state officials, including representatives from the governor's office, state legislature, faith community, family policy organizations, and relevant state departments like health and social services. The membership is required to reflect Missouri's diversity in terms of race, gender, geography, and economic background. The lieutenant governor will call the first meeting, where members will elect a chair and vice chair. Legislative members will receive standard legislative compensation and expenses, while non-legislative members will serve without pay but can be reimbursed for meeting expenses. The commission is tasked with preparing a detailed report of its findings, conclusions, and recommendations to the General Assembly by January 15, 2026, after which the commission will be dissolved. This bill aims to provide a structured approach to understanding and addressing the complex issues surrounding grandparents who are primary caregivers for their grandchildren.
