Bill > SCR0001

This concurrent resolution allows the Indiana Senate and House of Representatives during the 124th General Assembly's First Regular Session to adjourn and recess separately for periods longer than three consecutive days, with the approval of their respective leaders (the President Pro Tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House). The resolution is necessary because the Indiana Constitution requires that one legislative chamber cannot adjourn for more than three days without the consent of the other chamber. Specifically, the resolution provides mutual consent for each chamber to take recesses or adjournments as needed, with the intention of recessing after November 19, 2024, and reconvening on January 8, 2025, to conduct legislative business. This allows each chamber flexibility in scheduling while maintaining constitutional requirements for legislative continuity and inter-chamber communication.
