H.905 is a legislative proposal aimed at enhancing civil rights protections in Vermont by aligning and integrating existing laws across Titles 9, 13, and 21. The bill introduces a statutory definition of disparate impact for civil rights violations and establishes a State private right of action for individuals seeking to address these violations. Additionally, it mandates antibias and antidiscrimination training for State and municipal employees, requires law enforcement agencies to produce annual public reports on specific offenses, and necessitates equity certifications from State contractors and grant recipients.

Furthermore, the bill seeks to create several new entities, including the State Civil Rights Data Repository, the State Civil Rights and Equal Protection Fund, and the Civil Rights Coordinating Council. It also includes provisions to prohibit unauthorized federal collaboration that could undermine Vermont's civil rights protections. Overall, H.905 aims to strengthen the framework for addressing discrimination and promoting equity within the state.
