Relates to requiring bills with a threshold level of co-sponsorship to be brought to the floor for a vote to be taken thereon
This bill requires that certain legislative bills be scheduled for a floor vote if they reach specific co-sponsorship levels. Assembly bills must have at least 76 co-sponsors to be brought to the floor for a vote during the same session they were introduced, while Senate bills need 32 co-sponsors. The law applies to all bills introduced in the current legislative session and mandates that once the threshold is met, the bill must be considered on the floor. It directly affects legislators who introduce bills by setting minimum support requirements for floor consideration.
