This bill requires the Legislative Research Council to provide two hours of training on Native American law to newly elected legislators and research council staff. The council must also make training materials available to current legislators who want to take the course. This creates a new requirement where none existed before to ensure lawmakers have basic knowledge of Native American legal issues.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
