Bill > JRH005

This joint resolution establishes temporary rules for remote voting by joint committee members through the end of calendar year 2025. Specifically, the resolution allows each joint committee member to vote remotely for up to three days during this period. When a member chooses to vote remotely, they must first notify the committee chair (or co-chairs) and the committee clerk about their intention to do so. Members voting remotely will still count toward establishing a committee quorum, ensuring that the committee can conduct business. Additionally, the committee clerk is required to record these remote votes and keep track of how many days each member uses this remote voting option. This resolution provides flexibility for committee members who may be unable to physically attend committee meetings, while maintaining accountability and transparency in the voting process.
