Question 2b Allows for one legislative body to meet without the other (I'll vote yes)
“Shall Article III of the Constitution of this State be amended by deleting Section 21 which provides that neither house of the General Assembly shall, without the consent of the other, adjourn for more than three days, nor to any other place than that in which it shall be at the time sitting?”
Explanation
If the question is approved, the prohibition against either body of the General Assembly adjourning for more than three days without the consent of the other body would be deleted.
Proposed Explanation
“This amendment deletes a requirement that prohibits either house from adjourning for more than three days without the consent of the other house. This deletion is necessary to permit the meeting and receding provisions outlined in paragraph one.”
