What it would have done
Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
Under current law, the Department of Administration (DOA) administers a program to provide heating assistance to eligible households. "Heating assistance" is defined as a benefit given to a household to assist in meeting the cost of home heating. Current law allows households to apply for heating assistance after September 30 and before May 16 of any year. This bill allows a household to apply at anytime during the year if the heating assistance is for propane used for home heating. Also, the bill requires DOA to ensure that heating assistance for propane used for home heating is available at times when market conditions reduce propane prices.
