Current Bill Summary

SB 1375 - This act requires the General Assembly to record all debate regarding joint resolutions that would modify the Constitution. If the resolution is passed by the voters, each house of the general assembly would have to transcribe the debate within three months. Official copies of the transcript would be submitted to the secretary of state and the legislative librarian. Once transcribed and verified, the transcript would have the same evidentiary value, in so far as it relates to debate, as a transcription from a constitutional convention.
