SB 77: State vehicle fleet: light-duty vehicles: raw materials: child labor.
The bill aims to improve the state vehicle fleet by requiring suppliers of light-duty vehicles to certify that the raw materials used in their manufacturing come from mining operations free of child labor. The supplier must provide the department with information about the locations where the raw materials were mined and the average hourly wage of the workers. The department will post this information on its website, along with a list of light-duty vehicles that meet this certification. This requirement applies to light-duty vehicles purchased for the state vehicle fleet, with the goal of reducing the use of vehicles that may be linked to child labor.
