• The committee approved four amendments to its state legislative agenda, including two that advocate for clear guidance for conduct at public meetings and increased criminal penalties for threats or violence against public officials.

• The committee rejected a proposed amendment to the legislative agenda to advocate for laws allowing cities to opt out of indemnifying police officers and requiring officers to carry professional liability insurance.
