Suspending Rules 24(c), 35, 41(b), and 42(e), Uniform Rules of the Alaska State Legislature, concerning Senate Bill No. 86, relating to the business of money transmission; relating to licenses for money transmission, licensure requirements, and registration through a nationwide multistate licensing system; relating to the use of virtual currency for money transmission; relating to authorized delegates of a licensee; relating to acquisition of control of a license; relating to record retention and reporting requirements; authorizing the Department of Commerce, Community, and Economic Development to cooperate with other states in the regulation of money transmission; relating to permissible investments; relating to violations and enforcement of money transmission laws; relating to exemptions to money transmission licensure requirements; relating to payroll processing services; relating to currency exchange licenses; and amending Rules 79 and 82, Alaska Rules of Civil Procedure.

This bill temporarily suspends specific legislative rules that normally require bills to be titled accurately and follow standard formatting procedures. It directly affects the legislative process by allowing Senate Bill No. 86, which deals with money transmission and virtual currency, to be considered despite potential technical issues with its title or structure. The suspension enables the bill to proceed to the governor for signature without being blocked by procedural objections related to its naming or form.
