AI Summary
This bill establishes a temporary halt, known as a moratorium, on the Division of Occupational and Professional Licenses (DOPL) from creating new administrative rules or increasing any licensing fees for a period of five years, from July 1, 2026, to June 30, 2031, though the DOPL can still make rules to remove existing regulations or reduce regulatory burdens. Additionally, the bill mandates that by December 31, 2026, the DOPL must propose legislation to move its administrative rules that are less than eight pages long into the official state statutes, which are the formal laws passed by the legislature. The bill also declares an emergency, meaning it will take effect immediately upon passage, specifically on July 1, 2026.
