Council Member Williams inquires about CCHR's familiarity with initiatives similar to Intro 1064 in other states and their awareness of employment-related inquiries regarding discrimination in promotional opportunities.
- Intro 1064 aims to reduce systematic racial inequities in promotional opportunities
- CCHR is familiar with a similar initiative in Colorado but not others mentioned
- CCHR tracks employment-related inquiries about discrimination in promotional opportunities but doesn't have the data on hand

Thank you.
2:03:56
Excuse me.
2:03:57
Two more questions on my bill.
2:04:00
This bill is intended, 1064, to reduce systematic racial inequities and promotional opportunities that may be partially due to a lack of access to information.
2:04:09
It was modeled after similar initiatives in Colorado, Illinois, and other states that increase transparency around when promotional opportunities become available and how employees can prepare for future opportunities when they arise.
2:04:23
Is the commission familiar with these initiatives in other states and localities?
JoAnn Kamuf Ward
2:04:31
So we or I am familiar with the Colorado bill, but I'm not, with the others that you mentioned.

Is the commission aware of how many its employment related inquiries might be related to discrimination and access to promotional opportunities?
JoAnn Kamuf Ward
2:04:49
I I not I don't have that information with me.
Katherine Carroll
2:04:53
We do we do track it, but we don't have it with us at the moment.
2:04:56
So happy to get back to you.
Nantasha M. Williams
