HR 77 Pennsylvania House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

A Resolution directing the Legislative Budget and Finance Committee to conduct a study and issue a report reviewing the possibility of transitioning the General Assembly to part-time status.

HR 77 is a procedural resolution directing Pennsylvania's Legislative Budget and Finance Committee to study transitioning the General Assembly to part-time status. The committee must review other states' legislative models (including session length, costs, and representation), Pennsylvania's legislative history, and constitutional amendment processes. The study will analyze potential cost savings and other impacts, with a report due within 18 months. This resolution does not change current law but prepares the legislature for future consideration of part-time status.
