H.907 is a bill introduced by the Committee on Government Operations and Military Affairs aimed at streamlining reporting requirements for state agencies by repealing unnecessary reports, extending others for four years, and exempting some from future repeal reviews. Key amendments include the repeal of annual reporting obligations for the Chief Performance Officer regarding state contracts and grants, as well as similar requirements for the Commissioner of Corrections and the Secretary of Agriculture, Food and Markets. The bill also eliminates outdated reporting mandates across various sectors, such as education and public health, thereby reducing the administrative burden on state agencies.

In addition to repeals, H.907 extends deadlines for specific reports until July 1, 2030, ensuring that reports on racial disparities in the criminal justice system, state ethics, and broadband expansion remain active. The bill mandates the Office of Economic Opportunity to report on weatherization program performance metrics and specifies that the State Court Administrator and other agencies must submit annual reports without expiration clauses. Overall, the bill emphasizes ongoing evaluation and accountability for various programs while ensuring that essential reporting requirements continue beyond typical expiration dates, with the act set to take effect on July 1, 2026.
