A bill for an act relating to the submission of proposed legislation by the governor and state departments and agencies.

Summary

The bill changes Iowa law so that state departments, agencies, and the governor must deliver proposed bills and joint resolutions to the Legislative Services Agency at least 60 days before the General Assembly convenes, rather than the current 45 days. The agency must review the proposals, return them for any needed changes within seven days, and then forward them to the presiding officers for committee referral. The change is intended to give legislators more time to evaluate agency‑originated legislation.
