The proposed bill, General Assembly Committee Bill No. 72, aims to require legislative approval for the eviction of farmers who are leasing state-owned property for agricultural purposes. Specifically, it stipulates that any lease agreement renewed or entered into after the bill's effective date must include a provision stating that evictions of farmers from such properties cannot occur without a vote from both chambers of the General Assembly. This measure is intended to provide additional protection for farmers who are legally farming on state land.

The bill introduces new legal language that mandates this legislative approval process, while no deletions from existing law are specified in the text. The act is designed to ensure that farmers are safeguarded against arbitrary evictions, thereby promoting stability and security for agricultural operations on state-owned land.
