MAJOR PROGRAM CHANGES Back to Top
    • Eliminate the Fair Employment and Housing Commission - The Budget includes a decrease of $579,000 ($495,000 General Fund) and 2.5 positions as a result of the elimination of the stand-alone Commission that handles appeals of employment and housing discrimination cases. Adjudication of employment and housing discrimination cases will be handled by a separate and distinct division of the Department of Fair Employment and Housing effectively eliminating the stand-alone Commission and consolidating workload.
