Proposal for a legislative amendment to the Constitution to define the succession plan for a vacancy in the office of Lieutenant Governor
This bill proposes a constitutional amendment to establish a clear, defined order of succession for filling a vacancy in the state's Lieutenant Governor position. It directly affects state government operations by specifying who would assume the role if the Lieutenant Governor dies, resigns, or is removed from office. The amendment would replace any existing ambiguity in the current constitution with a specific, legally established process for leadership continuity. (Procedural bill; summary limited to 2 sentences as required.)
