Plain-language change summary

The amendment to SB 126 maintains a requirement for the Commissioner of Public Health, along with other commissioners, to examine the roles and responsibilities of community health workers and report their findings. However, it updates the committee designation from "joint standing committee" to "joint standing committees," which may suggest a broader scope for the report recipients. This change could allow input from multiple committees, reflecting a more collaborative approach to addressing community health worker roles.
