The bill, known as SB127, seeks to extend the existence and operations of the Alabama Athletic Commission until October 1, 2027, in accordance with the Alabama Sunset Law. The legislation incorporates new legal language that states the commission's continuation and explicitly preserves the relevant code sections under Article 43 of Chapter 9 of Title 41, Code of Alabama 1975. The bill reflects the recommendations of the Sunset Committee, which has reviewed the commission's performance and deemed it necessary to maintain its functions.
Additionally, the bill specifies that it will take effect on June 1, 2024. There are no deletions from current law mentioned in the text, indicating that the bill is primarily focused on the continuation of the commission rather than altering existing provisions. The passage of this bill demonstrates the legislature's support for the ongoing role of the Alabama Athletic Commission in regulating athletic events within the state.
