House Bill No. by Representative Dickerson amends the membership structure of the Domestic Violence Prevention Commission in Louisiana. The bill reduces the total number of commission members from twenty to nineteen and decreases the number of designated members from eighteen to seventeen. It introduces provisions allowing for either a current or former district court judge with experience in criminal law and another with experience in family law to serve on the commission, both selected by the president of the Louisiana District Court Judges Association.

Additionally, the bill removes the representative of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives from the commission's membership. It also repeals a previous provision regarding the membership of the Louisiana Association of Chiefs of Police president or their designee. Overall, the bill aims to streamline the commission's composition while ensuring that it retains qualified judicial representation.
