Summary

The bill adds a new constitutional provision that allows the General Assembly to decide when a regular session ends and to hold up to two additional sessions totaling no more than twelve legislative days annually, if called by the Senate President and House Speaker. It also outlines how the amendment must be published, certified, and placed on the ballot for voter approval. The change would give legislators more scheduling flexibility while requiring voters to ratify the amendment.
