Summary

The bill adds a new law that obligates California’s Civil Rights Department to produce statewide and regional media campaigns aimed at discouraging discrimination based on protected characteristics. It also creates a nine‑member marketing working group, plus one Assembly and one Senate member, that is exempt from open‑meeting rules. The effort would be funded only after the Legislature appropriates money.
