HB2477 is a bill that proposes to amend Title 41, Chapter 4.1, Article 5 of the Arizona Revised Statutes by adding a new section, 41-860.08, which designates Pluto as the official state planet. The bill does not anticipate any fiscal impact to the state General Fund and will become effective on the general effective date. This bill recognizes the historical significance of Pluto's discovery at the Lowell Observatory in Flagstaff, Arizona, despite its reclassification as a dwarf planet by the International Astronomical Union in 2006.
