HB3629

The introduced and House committee texts contained the ineligibility rule and its transition provision. Noble’s sole indexed amendment, adopted May 14, added the ballot application’s statement acknowledging the restriction. That addition survived into the House-passed, Senate and enrolled versions; the Senate made no further amendment. Introduced text; amendment text; amendment index.

The House passed the measure 142–0 and the Senate 31–0, meeting the vote requirement for immediate effect when the governor signed it. The September 1 fallback date printed in the bill was therefore not its actual effective date.

School communities gain an explicit eligibility restriction and candidates receive notice through the application process. People subject to the registration requirement lose access to the covered trustee positions, and districts must use applications reflecting the acknowledgment. The measure does not establish a measured reduction in misconduct or guarantee a particular school’s safety.

Both available fiscal notes anticipate no state or local-government fiscal impact. HB3629 creates no appropriation or new penalty amount. Latest fiscal note.

Review boundary: This explains the new office-eligibility rule, not a determination of any named person’s registration duty or eligibility under all applicable laws.
