Organizes General Assembly for Two Hundred and Twenty-First Legislature and amends Assembly Rule 10:1.
This Assembly Resolution (AR 1) organizes New Jersey's General Assembly for the 221st Legislature. It formally appoints Craig J. Coughlin as Speaker, Benjie E. Wimberly as Speaker pro tempore, and Dana M. Burley as Clerk, and amends Assembly Rule 10:1 to adjust committee membership numbers for the new session. The resolution establishes internal operational procedures, including meeting schedules, staff authority under the Speaker, and the adoption of the Bill Drafting Manual. As a procedural resolution, it does not create new policy but sets the framework for the Assembly's functioning.
