Legislature Power: Bills for Legislatures to call their own special sessions

Kentucky’s Speaker of the House is supporting HB 4 (2024 | KY) that is to be amended to allow the Legislature to call itself into session for an additional 12 days a year and extend regular sessions beyond constitutionally required end dates. Fun fact: In 2022, Kentucky voters rejected a similar constitutional proposition.
