Laws

Indiana is without a Law but with Relevant/Related Laws, Bills, or Advocacy Activities.

Indiana law requires the inclusion of multiracial as an option on documents used by public agencies that include racial or ethnic classifications (Indiana Code 5-15-5.1-6.5, 1995). “Public agency” includes state and local government agencies and departments.

Bills

No recent bills were found that relate to disaggregation of racial or ethnic data.

One bill, HB 1390, introduced in 2019, would have established a task force to combat racism as a public health crisis. Although there is no discussion of data collection in this bill, if passed, such a task force would likely have been involved in enacting a relevant policy.
