On annual sessions
Best idea heard at the Capitol last week is to continue biennial appropriations as always. In order to comply with the language of the new annual sessions amendment that states that no legislative appropriation shall be for a period longer than one year, the appropriations will only be funded for one year. In the even year sessions, unless there are circumstances that require modification to the funding, the legislature should just come in and confirm the appropriations and adjourn. Feasible? Regardless of how it's done, the first even year session is likely to set the procedure/tradition for annual sessions.
