           SUMMARY  :   Requires the Department of Industrial Relations and 
          the Department of Fair Employment and Housing to collect and 
          tabulate data for each major Asian group, as specified.

           The Senate amendments  :

          1)Delete the State Department of Health Care Services and the 
            State Department of Public Health from the provisions of this 
            bill.

          2)Clarify that the state agencies required to comply with this 
            bill shall update their data collection as specified within 18 
            months after the decennial United States Census for the year 
            2020.

          3)Clarify legislative findings and declarations to reflect Asian 
            Americans and Native Hawaiians.

           EXISTING LAW  requires state agencies, boards, and commissions 
          which directly or by contract collect demographic data as to the 
          ancestry or ethnic origin of Californians to use separate 
          collection categories and tabulations for each major Asian and 
          Pacific Islander group, including, but not limited to, Chinese, 
          Japanese, Filipino, Korean, Vietnamese, Asian Indian, Hawaiian, 
          Guamanian, Samoan, Laotian, and Cambodian.

           AS PASSED BY THE ASSEMBLY  , this bill was substantially similar 
          to the version approved by the Senate.
