Revise code commissioner duties to include repealing unconstitutional policies from Montana code
This bill amends the duties of Montana's Code Commissioner to require the official to recommend legislation that removes laws permanently enjoined by courts as facially unconstitutional. The change specifically directs the Code Commissioner to identify and suggest repealing statutes that are no longer in effect due to final court rulings declaring them unconstitutional. This provision adds a new category of laws to be addressed alongside existing duties like eliminating outdated or redundant statutes. The amendment would affect the legislative process by ensuring unconstitutional laws are formally recommended for removal from the Montana Code Annotated.
