Committee advances HB 4319 requiring agencies to show authority for rules and inventory noncompliant rules
Summary
HB 4319 requires agencies to demonstrate explicit authority for each rule and to inventory rules within three years so rules lacking authority can be automatically repealed by Jan. 1, 2030; the committee passed the bill 7-0.
Sen. Bergstrom told the committee that House Bill 4319 "primarily does two things": it requires agencies to have specific and explicit authority for every agency rule they propose and it requires agencies to inventory all existing rules within three years so noncompliant rules can be automatically repealed by Jan. 1, 2030.
Bergstrom moved a due pass and yielded for questions; the transcript records no substantive debate. The clerk called the roll; the chair announced HB 4319 passed with 7 ayes and 0 nays.
The measure would force agencies to document statutory authority for each rule and to undertake a multi-year inventory that could lead to automatic repeal of rules that lack explicit authority by the specified date. The committee advanced the bill without recorded objections.
