Unicameral proposal gains backing for 1927 legislature
Amendment to abolish the house and senate seeks a unicameral lawmaking body. Senator Dowdell pushes for submission to the 1927 legislature with strong support, led by former Governor Charles N. Herreid and various state newspapers. Even if adopted, the change would take effect only after 1930, needing voter approval via a constitutional amendment and a joint resolution at a regular election. The next legislature convenes in two years, delaying chances to present the measure until 1928.
