Revises current State agency language survey requirements under the Dymally-Alatorre Act to require not only a survey of the language needs but also an assessment every two years utilizing various recent data sources and community input to understand the needs of LEP individuals. The bill also expands the definition of “substantial number of non-English speaking people” to include individuals who are eligible to served instead of just served by an agency. 2-Year bill as noted in the Senate Appropriations Committee.
