AI-generated summary, not yet reviewed by Better Utah staff. Please consult the bill text.
Legislative rules governing how bills are presented to the public would change under this resolution to let the lawmaker who sponsors a bill attach an optional supporting document explaining their reasoning. This document, limited to two pages, could describe the sponsor's policy goals, the bill's expected effects, or other context the sponsor wants to share, and it would be posted publicly on the bill's webpage alongside the legislation itself. The document must include the sponsor's name, the bill number, and a disclaimer stating it has not been reviewed for accuracy, is not an official part of the bill, and cannot be used as evidence of what the Legislature intended when passing the law. Sponsors could update or correct this document later only if the underlying bill changes or to fix a factual error.
