Since 1997, the Legislative Subcommittee has focused on legislation to provide qualified and certified court interpreters and to improve jury service.
The Legislative Subcommittee is charged with developing, implementing, and monitoring a coordinated legislative strategy for the Access Committee to propose legislative concepts, review proposed legislation on Access Committee issues, determine Access Committee support for or concerns about proposed legislation, and offer testimony and other information to legislators regarding legislation that promotes or might limit equal access to justice.
