The resolution seeks to adopt the Joint Rules for the House of Representatives and the Senate of the Ninety-Fifth General Assembly of Arkansas, establishing comprehensive procedures for legislative operations. It covers the organization of joint sessions, the roles of presiding officers, and the management of disorderly conduct. Additionally, it outlines the processes for presenting and managing bills, resolutions, and amendments, including requirements for sponsorship, engrossment, and enrollment. The resolution emphasizes the importance of orderly conduct and adherence to established procedures to facilitate effective governance, while also detailing the documentation requirements for bills and resolutions, including the proper marking of original copies and the amendment process.

Moreover, the resolution sets specific deadlines for the introduction of various types of legislation and mandates the use of an automated bill preparation system to ensure consistency. It includes provisions for the submission of bills to the Governor, the proposal of constitutional amendments, and the organization of joint committee meetings. Importantly, it requires fiscal impact statements for bills affecting lottery-funded scholarships and those imposing new costs on state programs, ensuring that financial implications are thoroughly evaluated before legislative consideration. This structured approach aims to maintain transparency, accuracy, and efficiency within the Arkansas General Assembly.
