            CONCURRENT RESOLUTION OF THE SENATE AND ASSEMBLY

proposing an amendment to article 3 of the constitution, in relation  to
  the printing of bills

  Section 1. Resolved (if the Assembly concur), That section 14 of arti-
cle 3 of the constitution be amended to read as follows:
  S  14.  No  bill  shall be passed or become a law unless it shall have
been printed OR MADE AVAILABLE IN AN  ELECTRONIC  PRINTABLE  FORMAT  and
upon  the desks of the members, in its final form, at least three calen-
dar legislative days prior to its final passage, unless the governor, or
the acting governor, shall have certified, under his or her hand and the
seal of the state, the facts which in his or her opinion necessitate  an
immediate  vote  thereon, in which case it must nevertheless be upon the
desks of the members in final form, not necessarily printed, before  its
final  passage;  nor shall any bill be passed or become a law, except by
the assent of a majority of the members elected to each  branch  of  the
legislature;  and  upon the last reading of a bill, no amendment thereof
shall be allowed, and the question upon its final passage shall be taken
immediately thereafter, and the ayes and nays entered on the journal.
  S 2. Resolved (if the Assembly concur), That the  foregoing  amendment
be referred to the first regular legislative session convening after the
next  succeeding  general  election  of members of the assembly, and, in
conformity with  section  1  of  article  19  of  the  constitution,  be
published for 3 months previous to the time of such election.
