Bill > SB507

This bill amends the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes to further regulate the use of equipment during open meetings and expand the coverage of General Assembly meetings that must be recorded and made publicly available. Specifically, it requires the Senate and House of Representatives to record and live-stream all meetings of committees where bills are considered and all hearings where testimony is taken, with the recordings posted on the General Assembly's website. The bill also clarifies that the Senate and House can still adopt rules governing the recording or broadcast of their own sessions and meetings, except for the meetings and hearings covered under the new requirements.
