What’s in it
This bill requires a bidder for a contract with a governmental entity to have in place a policy that prohibits harassment of a person based on the age, race, creed, color, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, religion, or disability of such person. The bidder shall include a copy of the policy with the bid. The bill provides definitions for “bidder”, “governmental entity”, and “harassment” as they apply to the bidding requirement.
