The sponsor's argument

Why Liz Krueger says this is needed

Pursuant to approval memo 84 of 2025, the Executive and Legislature have reached agreement on modifications to the underlying chapter.

This is the sponsor's own case for the bill, quoted from their memorandum. It is not Agora's description of what the bill does.
