What This Bill Does
- Requires the Governor's Office of Business and Economic Development (GO-Biz) to submit an annual report to each house of the Legislature on or before May 1.
- Keeps existing requirements for the report to include information on awarded grants, project descriptions, and program outcomes.
- Makes a nonsubstantive change to how the Government Code is named in this section.
Who It Names or Affects
- The Governor's Office of Business and Economic Development (GO-Biz).
- Each house of the California Legislature that receives the annual report.
- Local governments involved in competitive grants for immigrant integration initiatives, as their projects are described in the reports.
