HJR 2 Alabama House · 2025 Regular Session

Committee appointed to notify Governor that the Legislature is in Session

HJR 2 is a procedural resolution appointing a six-member committee to formally notify the Alabama Governor that the legislature has convened and is ready to conduct business. The committee consists of three House members (named by the Speaker) and three Senate members (named by the Presiding Officer). This resolution establishes a specific process for the legislature to communicate its session start to the Governor, without creating new policies or affecting the public. It is a routine procedural step, not a substantive legislative measure.

The bill transitioned from an introduced draft to an enrolled final version, incorporating standard legislative formatting, page numbering, and certification signatures required for official enactment. The substantive policy content regarding the committee appointment to notify the Governor of the legislature's session remains unchanged.
TECHNICAL

Bill status changed from 'Introduced' to 'Enrolled' with updated document identifiers (Z5DQRRR-1 to Z5DQRRR-2) and added page headers/footers for official record-keeping.

Added certification signatures and dates from the House Clerk (John Treadwell, 04-Feb-25) and Senate adoption (25-Feb-25) to validate the enrolled bill.

Minor text reformatting in the committee appointment section to improve readability while maintaining the same six-member committee structure and notification purpose.
