The bill amends RCW 72.09.080 to modify the composition and appointment process of the correctional industries advisory committee. It establishes that the committee will consist of 11 voting members, with nine appointed by the secretary and two by the governor. The bill specifies that the two members appointed by the governor must come from underrepresented populations and have direct lived experience, although they cannot be currently incarcerated. Additionally, the bill maintains the inclusion of nonvoting legislative members appointed by the speaker of the house and the president of the senate.

The bill also outlines the terms of service for committee members, with voting members serving three-year staggered terms and legislative members serving two-year terms. It ensures that all voting members receive compensation and reimbursement for travel expenses, while the secretary is tasked with providing necessary staff services and resources for the committee's operations.
