Summary: House Bill H 4567 — Extension of ENR Report Deadline to December 31, 2025

Overview

H 4567 is a House of Representatives order that extends the time within which the Joint Committee on Environment and Natural Resources (ENR) is authorized to report on certain current House documents. The extension pushes the deadline to Wednesday, December 31, 2025. It is a procedural measure, not a substantive policy change.

Purpose and Intent

    • 982
    • 983
    • 992
  • Procedural override: The extension is authorized “notwithstanding the provisions of House Rule 27,” meaning it overrides the ordinary rule to grant extra time.
