Whereas, rules governing the Community Health Access Program have been drafted and are under review by the Department of Human Services; and
Whereas, current law designates those rules as major substantive rules and subject to legislative review before final approval; and
Whereas, the rules will not be provisionally adopted before adjournment of the Legislature; and
Whereas, this Act designates the rules as routine technical rules to allow the Community Health Access Program to become operational before the Legislature reconvenes next January; and
Whereas, in the judgment of the Legislature, these facts create an emergency within the meaning of the Constitution of Maine and require the following legislation as immediately necessary for the preservation of the public peace, health and safety; now, therefore,
Be it enacted by the People of the State of Maine as follows:
