Bill Summary
A bill for an act relating to state government; eliminating automatic appointment confirmation when the legislature does not take up a confirmation; repealing Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 15.066, subdivision 3.
AI Summary
This bill eliminates the current law in Minnesota that automatically confirms an appointed official if the legislature fails to reject their appointment within a specific timeframe, typically 60 legislative days. Previously, if the Senate, or both the Senate and House of Representatives, did not take action to reject an appointment within this period, the appointment was considered confirmed. This bill repeals the specific section of Minnesota Statutes that outlines this automatic confirmation process, meaning that for future appointments requiring legislative confirmation, inaction by the legislature will no longer result in an automatic approval.
