ACR 41 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Requires Legislature to make bills and joint resolutions available to public on Legislature's website at least seven days before final vote.

ACR 41 is a proposed constitutional amendment that would require New Jersey's Legislature to make all bills and joint resolutions available to the public on its website for at least seven full calendar days after the second reading and before the final vote. This would replace the current requirement of a one-day gap between the second and third readings. The amendment includes an exception allowing a final vote without the seven-day wait if three-fourths of a legislative chamber votes to classify the bill as an emergency measure. If approved by voters, this change would apply to all bills and joint resolutions subject to the three-readings process.
