MN SF4557

Proposes an amendment to Minnesota Constitution, article IV, section 12, removing the 120 legislative day limit per biennium for regular legislative sessions.

Removes language restricting the legislature from meeting in regular session after the first Monday following the third Saturday in May of any year.

Maintains existing provisions requiring the legislature to meet at the state seat of government, defining "legislative day" by law, and allowing the governor to call special sessions.

Preserves rules preventing either house from adjourning for more than three days (Sundays excepted) without consent of the other house.

Requires voter approval at the 2022 general election with the ballot question: "Shall the Minnesota Constitution be amended to remove limitations on the amount of time the legislature may meet in regular session each year?"
