House Resolution No. [insert number] directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to present only those enrolled House bills that have been finally passed by both houses of the One Hundred Third Legislature to the Governor. This resolution is grounded in the Michigan Constitution, which stipulates that any business pending at the final adjournment of a regular session in an even-numbered year does not carry over to the next regular session. Consequently, the business of the One Hundred Second Legislature, which adjourned on January 1, 2025, does not carry over to the One Hundred Third Legislature that convened on January 8, 2025.

The resolution emphasizes the importance of adhering to the Standing Rules of the House of Representatives for the One Hundred Third Legislature, which only allows for the presentation of bills that have passed during its current session. It asserts that any attempt to present bills from the previous legislature would not comply with these rules and would undermine the accountability of the current House to its constituents. The resolution concludes by mandating that copies be sent to relevant parties, including the Clerk of the House, the Governor, and the President of the Senate.
