S 1364 Idaho Senate · 68th Legislature, 2nd Regular Session (2026)

RULES – Amends existing law to provide for the expiration of temporary rules.

This bill clarifies how temporary government rules in Idaho expire and establishes specific deadlines for their review by the legislature. It requires agencies to explain why a rule needs to take effect before going through normal review, and sets a June 30 deadline for temporary rules to expire unless the legislature approves them by concurrent resolution. The law also specifies when pending rules become effective after legislative approval, with most taking effect on July 1 of the session year. These changes apply to all state agencies that create administrative rules and affect how quickly temporary regulations remain in force.
