RS31229 / HCR021
This legislation modifies Joint Rule Three to include a provision requiring a bill or joint resolution that has passed in one house with a two thirds majority or greater will be given a full hearing in the other chamber. This would honor the work of the legislators by ensuring that it is given a hearing.
This legislation will not impact the general fund because it only relates to the proceedings with which legislation is considered.
