New Jersey SCR71 proposes an amendment to the state Constitution, mandating that each House of the Legislature convene four times a year to debate State issues and policies. The sole purpose of these meetings would be to allow legislators to discuss matters relevant to the government, the people, and the operations of the Legislature. During these sessions, members could pose questions and respond to others. The presiding officer would set the agenda, but members could also raise issues not on the agenda. This amendment aims to foster open debate and dialogue, similar to parliamentary systems.
