Digest
HB 926 revises the Government Code to restrict the circumstances under which state agencies may adopt certain rules. It removes exemptions allowing for rules necessary to receive federal funds or comply with federal law and limits rulemaking to specific scenarios, such as reducing regulatory burdens, addressing natural disasters, or complying with explicit legislative mandates. The bill applies only to rules proposed after September 1, 2025.
