SPECIAL ORDER CALENDAR

Summary

SR43 is a Senate resolution that sets a special order of business to fast-track a list of sunset-related licensing-board bills for consideration on the fifteenth legislative day.

What This Bill Does

If adopted, it places the listed sunset bills on a priority calendar to be dealt with before other business. It specifies how each bill would continue or modify the sunset provisions for various professional licensing boards, including new expiration dates (mostly Oct 1 of specified years) and whether changes are with or without modification. One bill (HB123) includes amendments to board membership, duties, and penalties under the Sunset Law.

Who It Affects

• Licensed professionals and their licensing boards (e.g., medical, dental, chiropractic, nursing, optometry, veterinary, physical therapy, podiatry, speech-language pathology, audiology, engineering, geology, nursing home administration, and others) whose boards are listed, because their sunset provisions may be extended or adjusted.
• The general public served by these boards, since extended or modified regulatory rules, board composition, and penalties can affect licensing oversight and consumer protection.

Key Provisions

• Creates a special and paramount order of business for the fifteenth legislative day, taking precedence over regular business.
• Lists specific bills (HB110, HB111, HB114, HB118, HB122, HB124, HB125, HB128, HB123 w/amend, HB112, HB109, HB108, HB113, HB115, HB117, HB120, HB126, HB127, HB121, HB129, HB116, HB130, HB131, HB119) to be considered under this special order.
• For each listed bill, states whether the Sunset Law continuation is 'continued with modification' or 'continued without modification' and provides the new expiration date (October 1 of various years).
• HB123 is identified as 'w/amend', indicating changes to board membership, duties, and penalties under the Sunset Law. All other listed bills specify the nature of the continuation and the respective termination dates.
