What A 307 does, verified January 8, 2026
The proposed law aims to regulate the state's involvement in compacts, programs, and other legal agreements. It states that the state shall not enter into any such agreements with other states or foreign governments unless they are enacted, approved, or ratified through enabling legislation. This means that any such agreement that conflicts with the new law would be null and void. The law would take effect 108 days after it becomes a law.
