Massachusetts H69 proposes a constitutional amendment to establish a succession plan for a vacancy in the Lieutenant Governor's office.

Massachusetts H69 proposes a legislative amendment to the state Constitution to define the succession plan for a vacancy in the office of Lieutenant Governor. The amendment specifies that when the Lieutenant Governor's position is vacant due to death, resignation, removal from office, or permanent incapacity, the Governor shall nominate a replacement. This nominee would then take office upon confirmation by a majority vote of both houses of the General Court. This proposal aims to ensure a clear and orderly process for filling such vacancies.
