Requires a fiscal note when a bill enacts or amends a law impacting the cost of utility services
This bill requires that any new or amended legislation affecting utility costs (like electricity or gas bills) must include a fiscal note. The note must estimate the annual cost to people paying these bills and explain where that estimate came from. It applies specifically to bills changing laws related to utility service costs for electric, gas, or combined utility providers. The goal is to provide clear financial impact information before such bills are considered.
