The bill amends section 760.11 of the Florida Statutes, which pertains to the Florida Commission on Human Relations. Key changes include the removal of the requirement for the commission to send copies of complaints by registered mail, streamlining the process for notifying parties involved in discrimination complaints. Additionally, the bill updates the language regarding the timeline for filing complaints and responses, specifying that complaints must be filed within 365 days after the alleged violation and that responses must be submitted within 25 days after the complaint is filed.

The bill also clarifies that the commission must investigate complaints and determine within 180 days whether there is reasonable cause to believe a discriminatory practice has occurred. The notification process for the determination of reasonable cause has been updated to eliminate the registered mail requirement, allowing for more efficient communication with the aggrieved person and the respondent. The act is set to take effect on July 1, 2025.
