What this does not establish
- The scope is taken from the official long title on the Legislature's bill page; the introduced bill text (PDF) was not opened, so provisions are not restated beyond the title.
- The Legislature's pages state that its online versions of legislation are not official.
- The 136th General Assembly runs through 2026, so the bill is recorded as pending, not failed.
- Whether HB 957 is identical to Senate Bill 374 was not compared.
Unresolved questions
None recorded.
Relationships
Supersession means a later instrument replaces the earlier legal effect. Repeal links identify the repeal instrument and the measure it ends. A later implementation or related letter is not treated as a replacement unless the record says so.
- No related action is recorded.
