Bill Summary
relating to: legislative suspension of rules promulgated by state agencies (first consideration).
AI Summary
This joint resolution proposes a constitutional amendment that would grant the state legislature the power to suspend rules created by state agencies. Specifically, the legislature could use a joint resolution, passed by a majority vote in both houses, to indefinitely suspend or suspend for a set period, either all or part of a rule. Any rule suspended in this manner would have no legal effect during the suspension period. Importantly, this legislative suspension of a rule would not require the governor's approval or follow the usual process for enacting laws. The resolution also clarifies that the definition of a "rule" for this purpose would be determined by the legislature itself. This proposed amendment would then be referred to the next elected legislature and published for three months before the next general election for public consideration.
