Senate Confirmation of Gubernatorial Appointments and Legislative Approval of Extended States of Emergency

Summary

The resolution would change the state constitution so that the governor could no longer rely on three cabinet members to approve appointments; instead the Senate must confirm them. It also would make the legislature needed to approve any state of emergency that the governor wants to keep in effect after 60 days. The measure failed in committee and will not go to voters.
