This bill proposes several updates to the current statutes regarding the responsibilities and operations of the attorney general. It replaces the pronouns "he" and "his" with "the attorney general" to clarify the language and ensure gender neutrality. Additionally, it introduces a new responsibility for the attorney general to prosecute any U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers for criminal violations occurring during the performance of their official duties.
Furthermore, the bill modifies the provisions related to appropriations, stating that appropriations made pursuant to a specific subsection are not subject to lapsing provisions, thereby providing more financial stability for the services rendered by the attorney general's office. Overall, these changes aim to enhance the clarity and effectiveness of the attorney general's role and responsibilities within the state.
