FL S0336

Creates section 11.52, F.S., requiring the Office of Program Policy Analysis and Government Accountability to prepare racial and ethnic impact statements upon request of a Legislature member for proposed legislation or constitutional amendments.

Impact statements must describe anticipated effects on the racial and ethnic composition of the criminal offender population and recipients of human services, include estimates of compositional changes, and detail methodologies and assumptions used.

Requires the office to file constitutional amendment impact statements with the Secretary of State 99 days before election, with a public hearing held 95 days before the election to receive suggested changes; failure to file does not prevent ballot inclusion.

Amends section 101.161, F.S., to require ballots to include racial and ethnic impact statements when prepared pursuant to the new law.

Establishes section 120.90, F.S., requiring state agencies that award grants to include racial and ethnic impact statements in grant applications and directs the Department of Management Services to create and distribute a standard form; effective July 1, 2014.
