Legislator public-accessibility policy postponed for further staff input
Summary
Resolution 709, which would establish a policy on legislator public accessibility, was postponed at the request of committee members who said the sponsor was not present and staff input would be helpful for crafting workable tools.
The committee postponed consideration of Resolution 709, a proposal introduced by Legislator McCullough to establish a policy on legislator public accessibility.
President Hovind moved to delay the item until the next meeting because the sponsor was not present to answer questions or indicate whether the draft had changed since December. Several members requested that staff be involved in redrafting to ensure the proposed tools and procedures are practicable and that staff can implement them. The committee approved the motion to postpone to the next month by voice vote with no opposition recorded.
Next steps: Committee members asked the sponsor and staff to collaborate on a revised draft before the item returns to committee.
