Utah renews agency rules with five exceptions

The law renews all Utah state agency rules except five listed rule sets. The exceptions are R156-28-302b(1)(b) and (c), R156-55d-302c(5), R156-55e-302a(1)(b), R156-61-302b(1)(b) and (c), and R156-61-302d. These exceptions are not renewed by this law. The text does not explain what they cover or how the changes affect households. The law provides no new funding or funding changes. The default effective date is May 6, 2026. Approval by two-thirds of all elected members in each legislative house triggers a different timing rule. Under that rule, the effective date is the later of May 1, 2026, and the applicable approval date. That approval date is the governor’s approval date, or the veto override date if the governor vetoes the act. Without the governor’s approval, it is the day after the constitutional action deadline under Utah Constitution, Article VII, Section 8.
