Bill Summary

A bill for an act relating to state government; providing that the vice-chair of the Legislative Coordinating Commission alternates between the senate and house of representatives every two years; amending Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 3.303, subdivision 3.

AI Summary

This bill modifies the leadership structure of the Legislative Coordinating Commission (LCC), a legislative body that provides oversight and coordination between the Minnesota State Senate and House of Representatives. Specifically, the bill updates the rules for the commission's chair and vice-chair positions, establishing a rotating leadership model where the chair alternates between the senate president and the house speaker every two years at the start of the regular legislative session in odd-numbered years. When not serving as chair, the other legislative leader will serve as vice-chair. This change ensures that both chambers of the legislature have equal opportunities to lead the commission and maintain balanced representation in its leadership. The modification aims to promote cooperation and shared governance between the senate and house by creating a systematic approach to leadership rotation.
