These bills will result in more than $46 million in savings and revenue gains over the next two years by streamlining agency processes and eliminating waste, duplication, and inefficiency in state government. This report summarizes the results of the Sunset Commission's work, including changes made by the 79th Legislature to modify and improve the Sunset bills.
