AI Summary

This bill amends the Township Code to explicitly prohibit township officials from denying funding to an organization based on the national origin of the individuals who would benefit from those funds. While the government-provided summary provides a clear overview, the XML document appears to be incomplete or truncated, which limits the ability to provide a more detailed analysis of the specific language changes. The bill seems designed to prevent discrimination in the allocation of township funds by ensuring that an organization's eligibility for funding cannot be determined by the national origin of its potential beneficiaries. By defining "national origin" (though the specific definition is not provided in the available text), the bill aims to create a legal protection against potential discriminatory practices in local government funding decisions.
