Impact

The passage of HCR5002 will officially mark the end of the legislative session for 2024, signaling that no further legislative business will be conducted after the specified date. This resolution is particularly relevant for the planning and forecasting of future legislative agendas and for the organization of legislative staff and resources post-adjournment.

Summary

HCR5002 is a Concurrent Resolution from the Kansas Legislature that addresses the scheduling of the 2024 Special Session. The resolution stipulates that the Legislature will adjourn sine die, meaning without setting a date for resumption, at the conclusion of its daily session on June 18, 2024. This resolution signifies a formal closure of legislative activities and can be seen as a procedural step in the legislative calendar.

Contention

While the bill itself may not have been a topic of wide-ranging debate, the adjournment period defined in HCR5002 can have implications for ongoing legislative issues, including budget considerations or pending legislation that might need further discussion. The decision to adjourn sine die effectively halts all discussions and actions, which may lead to contention if there are unresolved matters that require legislative action before the end of the session.
