Bill Summary

This bill prohibits a bill that that has been certified for a fiscal note or legislative fiscal estimate from being released from committee unless and until the fiscal note or legislative fiscal estimate is complete.

AI Summary

This bill mandates that any legislative bill that has been officially requested to have a fiscal note or legislative fiscal estimate, which is a document detailing the potential financial impact of the proposed law, cannot be advanced out of a legislative committee until that fiscal note or estimate is fully completed. The Legislative Budget and Finance Officer is responsible for preparing these documents, and this bill adds a new provision (section 5b) to ensure that bills requiring such financial analysis are not moved forward prematurely, thereby providing lawmakers with complete information before making decisions.
