A concurrent resolution to amend and reenact section 2 of article V of the Constitution of North Dakota, relating to the election of public service commissioners; to provide for application; and to provide an effective date.

SCR 4015 proposes a constitutional amendment to increase North Dakota's public service commission from three to five members. It requires the state legislature to divide North Dakota into five districts for elections, with each district electing one commissioner. The amendment mandates the legislature to establish these districts by January 2027, based on the 2020 census, and sets the first election for the additional members for 2028. If approved by voters in 2026, the changes would take effect with commissioners assuming office in 2029. This bill directly affects how public service commissioners are elected and represents a structural change to the state's regulatory body.
