CO HCR1002

Submits a constitutional amendment to Colorado voters at the November 8, 2022 general election to eliminate the requirement that bills be read at length on two different days in each chamber of the General Assembly.

Removes the mandate for full text readings while retaining the requirement that bills be read by title when introduced and that substantial amendments be printed before final votes.

Maintains all other bill passage requirements including majority votes in both chambers on two separate days and recorded ayes and noes votes on final passage.

Requires at least 55 percent of electors voting on the ballot measure to approve the amendment for it to become part of the Colorado Constitution.

Allows any reading at length to continue to be dispensed with upon unanimous consent of members present, but removes the ability of individual legislators to demand a full reading.
