What AB 766 does, verified March 9, 2026

This bill aims to improve the state government's strategic planning and performance. It requires state agencies and departments to develop and report on a strategic plan that includes a description of the elements, process, and timetable for its completion. The plan must also reflect the use of data analysis and inclusive practices to advance racial equity and address disparities. Agencies will be required to develop or update the strategic plan if feasible, and the plan will be subject to the governor's authority. The goal is to make state government more effective and responsive to the needs of the public.
