SB 379 Arkansas Senate · 2025 Regular Session

TO REPEAL THE LAW REQUIRING THE TAX ADVISORY COUNCIL TO SUBMIT A REPORT.

SB 379 repeals Arkansas Code § 26-18-902(c), which required the Tax Advisory Council to submit an annual report to the chairs of the House and Senate Revenue and Taxation committees. This bill directly affects the Tax Advisory Council by eliminating its mandatory reporting obligation. The key mechanism is the removal of the specific statutory requirement for the council to produce the report. The bill does not create new policies or impact other entities; it solely modifies a procedural requirement. The repeal became effective when Governor signed it as Act 464 on April 7, 2025.
