This bill proposes to repeal Section 41-3025.13 of the Arizona Revised Statutes, which currently governs the board of executive clemency. In its place, the bill introduces a new section, 41-3030.17, which establishes that the board will terminate on July 1, 2030, and that Title 31, chapter 3, along with this new section, will be repealed on January 1, 2031. The bill also clarifies that the legislature will continue the board's functions related to commutations, pardons, reprieves, and paroles as outlined in existing law.

Additionally, the bill includes a retroactive application clause, stating that the provisions of the act will apply from July 1, 2025, onward. This means that the changes will take effect in the future but will be considered as having been in place since the specified date. Overall, the bill aims to streamline the governance of the board of executive clemency while establishing a clear timeline for its dissolution.
