Joint resolution; approving certain proposed permanent rules of certain state agencies.
SJR 18 is a joint resolution that restores three specific state agency rules to their previous versions by disapproving proposed changes. It directly affects the Office of Management Enterprise Services, reversing proposed amendments to rules about procurement procedures (260:115-3-11), employee evaluations (260:115-7-32), and contract requirements (260:95-3-6). The bill does not create new policy but reinstates existing rule language that was altered in proposed updates. This resolution became law without the Governor's signature on May 28, 2025.
