This bill amends Minnesota Statutes to enhance the data provisions related to jury source lists. Specifically, it modifies section 13.69 by adding that race and ethnicity data must be provided to the judicial branch as part of the information compiled for the jury source list. This change aims to ensure that the jury selection process is more representative and inclusive by incorporating demographic data.

Additionally, the bill introduces a new subdivision to section 270B.14, which mandates the commissioner to disclose a list of individuals aged 17 and older who are required to file a tax return or received any tax benefit to the judicial branch. This list will include each individual's full name, date of birth, address, county of residence, and, if available, race and ethnicity data, further supporting the efforts to compile a comprehensive jury source list.
