Amending section 22 of article VI thereof, relating to amending the annual 60-day regular session provisions to provide every other year for a 30-day session for the sole purpose of passing a state budget, and every other year a 60-day general law session in which any legislation may be considered

HJR 41 proposes a constitutional amendment to change West Virginia's legislative session schedule. It would alternate between a 60-day general session (every other year) where any bill can be considered, and a 30-day session (the following year) limited solely to passing the state budget. During 30-day sessions, lawmakers could only address budget-related matters unless the Governor issues a proclamation or a two-thirds vote of both chambers allows other business. The amendment aims to shorten legislative sessions every other year, with the stated purpose of "saving taxpayers money" by reducing session length. This is a procedural constitutional change affecting how the state legislature organizes its work and budget process.
