suspension of rules promulgated by state agencies (first consideration).
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
This constitutional amendment, proposed to the 2025 legislature on first consideration, provides that the legislature may by joint resolution adopted by a majority vote of all members elected to each house suspend indefinitely, or for a period specified in the resolution, in whole or in part any administrative rule promulgated by a state agency. Under the proposed amendment, a rule or part of a rule suspended by the legislature has no force or effect during the pendency of the suspension, and the legislature’s suspension of a rule is not subject to presentment to the governor or any other requirement under the constitution concerning the enactment of laws.
A constitutional amendment requires adoption by two successive legislatures, and ratification by the people, before it can become effective.
