A BILL for an Act to provide for a legislative management study relating to periodically reconvened sessions of the legislative assembly.

SB 2319 would change how the North Dakota legislature schedules additional sessions after its regular January meeting. It allows legislative management to reconvene the assembly for three consecutive days each month (Friday through Sunday, except December) plus up to seven additional days annually. These sessions must stay within the constitutional limits on total session days, and the bill clarifies that the legislature must reconvene as determined by management regardless of prior adjournment motions. The bill directly affects legislative scheduling procedures but does not create new laws or policies for the public.
