HB 2689 Missouri House · 2026 Regular Session

Requires a state agency to repeal two existing rules before enacting a new one

HB 2689 requires Missouri state agencies to repeal at least two existing rules before implementing any new rule. This directly affects all state departments, agencies, commissions, and boards that create administrative regulations. The key mechanism is a mandatory "two-for-one" rule repeal requirement for new rule proposals. The bill aims to streamline regulation by reducing the overall number of rules, though it does not specify which rules must be repealed.
