The bill establishes the Kansas International Trade Commission, which will consist of 16 members, including legislative leaders from both the Senate and House, as well as representatives from various sectors such as education, business associations, and the Kansas communities of Ireland, Japan, and Taiwan. The commission's purpose is to promote and encourage trade and investment between Kansas and these countries, focusing on bilateral trade, policy issues, business exchanges, and mutual economic support. Members will serve varying terms, with legislative members serving for the duration of their legislative session and non-legislative members serving three-year terms.

Additionally, the commission is authorized to raise funds through gifts, grants, and bequests, which will be deposited into the newly established Kansas International Trade Commission Fund. The commission will be responsible for reporting its findings and activities to the governor and legislature annually, and it will maintain transparency by keeping public records of its proceedings. The bill also outlines the compensation and reimbursement structure for commission members, ensuring that state funds are not used for travel expenses outside Kansas for non-state employee members.
