Requires gender balance in membership of certain boards and commissions established by statute.

This bill requires all state-appointed boards, commissions, task forces, and similar bodies established by statute to maintain gender balance in their membership. It mandates that no single gender can exceed half the total membership plus one for odd-sized groups, or more than half for even-sized groups. The requirement applies to all such bodies unless an exception exists in the creating statute or balancing conflicts with specific needs. The bill defines "gender" broadly to include gender identity and requires multiple appointing authorities to coordinate compliance. It applies immediately upon enactment to all existing and future such bodies.
