Bill > SCR101

This concurrent resolution authorizes the Alaska State Senate and House of Representatives to recess for a period longer than three days during the First Special Session of the Thirty-Fourth Alaska State Legislature. The resolution is grounded in two key constitutional and procedural provisions: Article II, Section 10 of the Alaska State Constitution, which normally prohibits either legislative house from adjourning or recessing for more than three days without the other house's concurrence, and Rule 52 of the Uniform Rules of the Alaska State Legislature, which stipulates that a concurrent resolution passed by a majority vote of the full membership in each house constitutes such concurrence. By passing this resolution, the legislature provides itself flexibility to take breaks during its special session that would otherwise be restricted by the state's constitutional time limitations.
