What this does not establish
- The bill status page (read 1 October 2026) is the status source; the full bill text was not opened, so provisions are described only as far as the official short title states them.
- The Pennsylvania 2025-2026 session continues until 30 November 2026, so a bill without further action is pending, not failed, on 1 October 2026.
- Act 21 of 2026 (record pa-act-2026-21-data-center-energy-water-reporting-20260712) separately enacted data center energy and water reporting; how this bill relates to it was not established.
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.
