SCR 128 Idaho Senate · 68th Legislature, 2nd Regular Session (2026)

ADMINISTRATIVE RULES – States findings of the Legislature and approves all temporary and pending rules submitted to the Legislature for review during the 2026 legislative session, with exceptions.

This bill approves most temporary and pending administrative rules submitted by Idaho state agencies for review during the 2026 legislative session, while rejecting specific rules from agencies including agriculture, environmental quality, health and welfare, and occupational licensing. The resolution allows agencies to continue their proposed regulations unless the Legislature explicitly disapproves them, with rejected rules becoming void at the end of the session. It lists 17 specific rule dockets that are not approved, covering areas such as seed production, fishing licenses, daycare licensing, water quality, and occupational therapy standards. State agencies and the public are directly affected as this determines which proposed regulations will remain in effect or expire.
