CIVIL SERVICE: Constitutional amendment to provide for membership of the State Civil Service Commission. (2/3 - CA12s1)
This bill proposes a minor correction to the California Constitution by standardizing the name of the State Civil Service Commission. It directly affects the state's administrative structure by ensuring the official title is consistently written with proper capitalization. The key provision requires changing the text "state civil commission" to "State Civil Service Commission" in the constitutional document. This change is purely clerical and does not alter the commission's powers, duties, or membership requirements.
