Senate Natural Resources & Economic Development Committee
Summary:
The Senate Committee on Natural Resources meeting addressed two significant bills: SB1114 and SB784, both focused on environmental regulations related to greenhouse gas emissions. SB1114, introduced by Senator Hancock, aimed to adjust local governments' authority in regulating product sales for emissions reduction, while SB784, presented by Senator Birdwell, sought to establish the state’s exclusive jurisdiction over greenhouse gas emissions, preempting local regulations. Both bills garnered favorable recommendations for passage, signaling a strong legislative commitment toward managing greenhouse gas emissions at the state level.
