What it does
Starting on July 1, 2028, the bill creates a process and establishes a public online forum for a member of the general assembly to publish drafts or titles of the bills that the member is considering introducing during the next legislative session. The bill allows each member to post multiple bill titles, drafts, or a combination of titles and drafts on the online forum and establishes a timeline for a member to publish up to 3 versions of each bill title or draft. The bill also requires each bill title or draft published to include a disclaimer stating that the bill is subject to change and may or may not be introduced based on the discretion of the prime sponsor.
More detail
The web page on which the bill titles and drafts are published must be taken down on the day before the first day of the legislative session. Legislative council staff shall begin to implement the changes necessary to create the public online forum upon passage of the bill so that a member may publish bill titles and drafts by July 1, 2028.
