Bill A 3671 — Repeals chapter 834 of the laws of 1940

Overview

Bill A 3671, introduced January 29, 2025, seeks to repeal Chapter 834 of the Laws of 1940. The bill has been referred to the Committee on Governmental Employees. A companion Senate bill exists (S 3927). Related Assembly bills from prior sessions include A 10560, A 5528, and A 7863. The primary sponsor is Jo Anne Simon, with cosponsors Chantel Jackson, Phara Souffrant Forrest, and Harvey Epstein.

Purpose and intent

  • The core aim is to repeal a statute enacted in 1940 (Chapter 834).
  • The bill’s intent, as stated, is to remove or eliminate the provisions contained in that historical chapter. The exact policy impact depends on the substantive content of Chapter 834, which is not provided in the summary.

Key provisions (as described)

  • Repeal of Chapter 834 of the Laws of 1940: The central operative clause would remove that entire chapter from current law.
  • Effective date and any transitional provisions: Not specified in the available summary. The enacted text would specify when the repeal takes effect and whether any transitional rules apply.

Affected parties and impact

  • Government agencies and officials typically governed by or subject to the law being repealed.
  • Governmental operations and regulatory frameworks that depended on Chapter 834 could be affected, potentially simplifying, updating, or removing current requirements.
  • Without the text of Chapter 834, the precise substantive impact—whether it removes duties, exemptions, rights, or regulatory constraints—is not determinable from the summary alone.

Procedural posture and timeline

  • Introduced: January 29, 2025.
  • Status: Referred to the Assembly Committee on Governmental Employees.
  • Legislative actions recorded: Referred to Governmental Employees on January 29, 2025 (listed twice in the provided data).
  • Next steps: If advanced, the bill would proceed through committee consideration, pass/modify in the Assembly, move to the Senate for consideration, and, if enacted by both houses, be sent to the governor for signing or veto. The presence of a Senate companion (S 3927) indicates parallel consideration in the other chamber.

Related legislation

  • Related/companion: S 3927 (Senate), listed twice in the data.
  • Prior-session bills: A 10560, A 5528, A 7863—these may be related in subject matter or were predecessors or duplicates in earlier sessions.
