This proposed constitutional amendment would let the Utah Legislature hold its annual general session on nonconsecutive days spread across the calendar year, rather than requiring lawmakers to meet in one continuous block, while still requiring the House and Senate to meet on the same days and keeping the overall session length capped at 45 calendar days (with certain statutory days excluded from that count instead of just holidays). It also removes the current constitutional rule barring one chamber from adjourning for more than three days without the other's consent, since that restriction would no longer make sense once sessions can already be spread out over time. Because Utah voters approved changes to legislative session rules in 2024, this measure must go back to voters for approval at the next general election, and if approved, the changes would take effect January 1, 2028.
