Bill > HR72

This resolution amends the Rules of the House of Representatives by adding Rule 79, which requires members to publish details of certain meetings on their official state websites. Specifically, the rule applies to both in-person and virtual meetings with nonconstituents where state law, regulations, or legislation are discussed. The publication must include the date and time of the meeting, the names of all nonconstituents in attendance, and their primary organizational affiliations. The resolution also mandates that members follow all provisions of Chapter 7 of Title 65 of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, which relates to open meetings. This new rule appears aimed at increasing transparency by ensuring that interactions between legislators and non-constituent stakeholders are made publicly accessible, allowing constituents to be informed about discussions that might influence potential legislative actions.
