The bill proposes the elimination of the Legislative Commission on Housing Affordability by repealing Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 3.8845. This repeal removes the structure and responsibilities of the commission, which included a membership of appointed senators and representatives, meeting protocols, terms of service, and duties related to studying and addressing issues of housing affordability in Minnesota.
The specific legal language being inserted into current law includes a new section titled "REPEALER," which formally states the repeal of the aforementioned statute. As a result of this bill, the commission's functions, such as defining housing affordability, analyzing emerging issues, and making legislative recommendations, will no longer be in effect, effectively dissolving the commission and its associated responsibilities.
