What changed in the latest version
0 added · 3 removedPlain-language change summary
The recent amendment to House Concurrent Resolution 2022 changed the wording by removing references to who introduced the bill and a specific title about nuclear energy. The resolution now focuses straightforwardly on supporting the Palo Verde Generating Station and the use of nuclear energy in Arizona. This change is significant because it highlights a clear legislative intent to back nuclear energy as a reliable power source, which can impact economic competitiveness and energy policy in the state.
PASSED BY THE HOUSE FEBRUARY 20, 2025.
PASSED BY THE SENATE MARCH 31, 2025.
FILED IN THE OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY OF STATE APRIL 1, 2025.
