Texas HB5083 amends rules for state agencies, including cost-benefit analyses, rule expiration, and enforcement actions.

Texas HB5083 amends the adoption and review of rules by state agencies. It mandates cost-benefit analyses for proposed rules, requiring agencies to consider economic costs and public benefits. Rules must be re-evaluated every six years, with agencies soliciting stakeholder data and conducting retrospective analyses. State agency rules expire 12 years after their effective date unless readopted. Enforcement actions based on expired rules are invalid. The bill also allows the governor to extend rule expiration dates under specific conditions.
