Plain-language change summary

The updated version of SB 47 changes the reauthorization process for administrative rules by specifying certain rules that will not be reauthorized. This is important because it allows for more targeted oversight of specific regulations, potentially addressing concerns about their relevance or effectiveness. Additionally, the effective date remains the same, but there is clarity on what happens if the bill is approved by a supermajority in the legislature. Overall, these changes aim to improve accountability and ensure that rules are periodically reviewed.
