Summary

The bill changes the Government Code so the Civil Rights Department must issue a yearly report on the Civil Rights Enforcement and Litigation Fund, showing penalties assessed, collected and still owed. It also increases the civil penalty for employers who repeatedly fail to file required pay‑data reports to as much as $1,000 per employee. The measure applies to private employers with 100 or more workers and to the department that oversees civil‑rights enforcement.
