AI Summary
This bill requires all state agencies in Oregon to conduct a comprehensive review of their administrative rules by January 1, 2027, with the primary goal of simplifying existing regulations and removing redundant language. Specifically, agencies must examine their own rules and also compare them with rules from other agencies to identify and eliminate unnecessary duplication. The legislation is temporary in nature, with the new requirements automatically repealing themselves on January 2, 2027, just after the mandated review period. The bill will be added to Oregon Revised Statutes (ORS) Chapter 183, which governs administrative rules and procedures. By setting a clear deadline and compelling agencies to streamline their rulebooks, the legislation aims to make government regulations more efficient, easier to understand, and less bureaucratically complex.
