House adopts temporary rules for 2025 session; bill-filing deadlines streamlined
The North Carolina House of Representatives adopted House Resolution 1 on Jan. 8, 2025, to set temporary rules governing the chamber during the 2025 regular session.

Representative John Bell explained the resolution on the floor, saying the temporary rules are designed to organize the House “so we can move forward” and to reduce multiple bill-filing deadlines to two, which staff said would provide clearer deadlines and more committee vetting time between filing and crossover. Bell asked members to support the resolution.

The clerk recorded the vote: 104 members voting in the affirmative and 11 in the negative. The House dispensed with a third reading without objection after the second-reading passage.

Adoption of temporary rules will allow the House to proceed with business while it completes consideration of permanent rules later in the session.
