Bill > HJR004

This joint resolution modifies several joint rules across different areas of legislative procedure. It updates rules related to news media credentials by redefining "discriminatory conduct" and requiring media members to complete annual online training on workplace discrimination prevention, with potential consequences for non-compliance. The resolution also restructures joint appropriations subcommittees by removing "Executive Offices" from one category and adjusting bill formatting requirements to clarify how new language, repealed sections, and amendments should be marked. Additionally, the resolution makes technical changes to various legislative committee rules, including renaming the "Administrative Rules Review Committee" to the "Rules Review and General Oversight Committee" and modifying provisions around committee meetings, bill files, and sponsorship processes. The changes aim to improve legislative procedures, ensure workplace professionalism, and provide clearer guidelines for bill drafting and committee operations. The resolution will take effect upon successful final passage.
