States of Emergency

Summary

The bill would cap any state of emergency at 60 days unless the Governor renews it, and any renewal would automatically end after one year unless two‑thirds of each legislative house votes to extend it. It also requires the Auditor General to perform quarterly financial and compliance audits for emergencies that last longer than a year, and gives the Legislature the power to end an emergency and stop the Governor from re‑issuing a similar one.
