This bill died with 2021-2022 Regular Session. It reached “Passed House” and never advanced before the session ended, so it can no longer move — a new version would have to be reintroduced in the current session.

This bill is no longer active — its legislative session has ended, so there is no live prognosis. It would have to be reintroduced in the current session to move again.

Plain-language change summary

The bill has been revised to establish the Independent Office of the Repealer within the Joint State Government Commission instead of the Independent Regulatory Review Commission. Additionally, the role of the director has been clarified, with a specific term length set at six years and a requirement for the director to report to the Joint State Government Commission. These changes aim to streamline the process of reviewing and potentially repealing outdated or burdensome regulations, helping to make government more efficient and responsive to citizens' needs.
