Annual meetings proposed for Kansas Legislature reform
The Kansas House introduced a constitutional amendment to limit regular legislative sessions to 60 calendar days and to create annual sessions. An accompanying amendment would reduce elective state offices to three governor lieutenant governor and attorney general with four year terms. The plan argues taxpayer savings and improved efficiency amid current 60 day even year budget sessions and unlimited odd year sessions. Additional measures would raise per pupil emergency aid, restrict Turnpike Authority highway signs to agreements, and fund state administration and the Judicial Council.
