Plain-language change summary

The recent changes to Senate Bill 6125 clarify the roles of state agencies and focus more on collaboration with individuals who have disabilities. Previously, the bill mentioned creating a preservation plan, while the new version specifies that the state archives will work together with the University of Washington to catalogue and preserve records and artifacts related to disabilities. This matters because it emphasizes a commitment to involving those with lived experiences in shaping future policies, potentially leading to better services and outcomes for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
