The resolution requests authorization for Senator Dismang to pursue the consideration of Senate Joint Resolution 15 (SJR 15) as a third proposed constitutional amendment. According to Section 19(C) of the Joint Rules of the Ninety-Fifth General Assembly, such an amendment cannot be considered or voted on until identical resolutions have been approved by a two-thirds majority in both houses of the General Assembly.
The resolution emphasizes the need for this authorization to allow SJR 15 to be referred to the state's electors for their approval or rejection. By passing this resolution, the Senate is taking the necessary steps to advance the proposed amendment through the legislative process.
