The bill introduces a new requirement for the Secretary of State to notify candidates elected to serve as members of the General Assembly regarding their remaining years of service before reaching the constitutional limitation on service. Specifically, it mandates that this notification must occur no later than thirty days after the certification of the election results. This measure aims to ensure that elected officials are fully aware of their tenure limits as outlined in Amendment 73 of the Arkansas Constitution.

The new section added to the Arkansas Code, designated as 10-2-135, formalizes this notification process, thereby enhancing transparency and accountability for members of the General Assembly. By informing elected officials of their service limitations, the bill seeks to promote informed decision-making and adherence to constitutional guidelines regarding legislative service.
