state agencies; guidance; website
SB 1586 requires all Arizona state agencies to post federal guidance they receive or create on their websites within 30 days. Agencies must include the full text, date, and a summary of how the guidance affects their operations, especially when it influences state law interpretation or federal compliance. Confidential federal guidance must be noted with reasons for non-disclosure, while personally identifiable information remains excluded. Agencies must submit annual compliance reports to the legislature starting December 31, 2026. This bill directly affects all state agencies handling federal funds or regulations by increasing transparency around external guidance.
