House Bill No. by Representative Hilferty seeks to repeal Section 2 of Act No. 384 from the 2024 Regular Session of the Louisiana Legislature. This section currently mandates that the State Civil Service Commission and the Civil Service Commission of the City of New Orleans collaborate to create a plan for transferring employees of the New Orleans Sewerage and Water Board to the state civil service. The bill effectively nullifies this requirement, allowing the commissions to disregard the previous mandate and not proceed with the planned transfer.

The proposed law will take effect either upon the governor's signature or after the designated time for bills to become law without the governor's signature, as outlined in the Louisiana Constitution. If the bill is vetoed by the governor but later approved by the legislature, it will become effective the day after such approval.
