Plain-language change summary

The updated version of Bill HB 411 now requires the attorney general to work with the Department of Health and Human Services to petition for a three-digit dialing code to access the National Human Trafficking Hotline. This change is significant because it streamlines the process for reaching the hotline, making it easier for victims or those seeking help to connect quickly. Additionally, the bill clarifies the state's limited authority over telecommunications, ensuring compliance with federal regulations.
