SB 986: Major regulations.
<blockquote> The bill amends California's Administrative Procedure Act (APA) by requiring that major regulations cannot take effect until they are reviewed by the legislature for 60 days. During this period, an informational hearing must be held and the legislature can reject the regulation through a concurrent resolution. If rejected, the regulation does not proceed; otherwise, it becomes effective after the review period. The bill also mandates agencies to submit additional information about proposed regulations to the legislature, including whether they are major regulations and their impact on state revenue. </blockquote>
