Plain-language change summary

The revised version of SB 134 now specifies that the Division of Homeland Security and Emergency Management can contract not only for individuals but also for goods needed for emergency response and recovery. This change is significant because it broadens the resources available during emergencies, potentially improving response times and effectiveness.
