Title: Communication, Clerk Of The House, Joint Rule 308.2 Letter Reference 30 Bills 5/1/2025
Status: READ and ORDERED PLACED ON FILE, in concurrence
Introduced: May 06, 2025
This bill seeks to amend Joint Rule 308.2 of the state legislature, which governs the process for the Clerk of the House to reference and communicate information about legislative bills. The primary goal is to streamline the administrative procedures around the Clerk's responsibilities for tracking and reporting on bills.
This bill primarily impacts the Clerk of the House and the legislative process. By formalizing the Clerk's communication responsibilities, it aims to improve transparency and information-sharing with all members of the legislature. This could help lawmakers stay better informed about pending bills and the legislative agenda.
The public may also benefit from increased access to information about active bills through the Clerk's published letter. However, the bill does not directly change public participation or access to the legislative process.
The bill has been read and ordered placed on file, indicating it has been accepted by the legislature but not yet scheduled for a full vote. The key timeline element is the requirement for the Clerk to send the referenced letter by May 1, 2025. No further action is specified in the bill text, so its ultimate passage and enactment would depend on the legislature's normal procedures.
