HB 230 New Mexico House · 2026 Regular Session

INTERIM ADMIN. RULES OVERSIGHT COMMITTEE

HB 230 creates a permanent 12-member legislative committee (appointed by party leaders in both houses) to review state agency rules during legislative breaks. It requires agencies to provide cost analyses for rules exceeding $1 million in implementation costs and mandates the committee to assess rules' necessity, fiscal impact, and legal compliance before final adoption. The committee will issue written recommendations to agencies during the public comment period for proposed rules. This establishes a formal process for legislative oversight of regulations, affecting state agencies, businesses, and citizens impacted by rule changes.
