The bill amends the existing law regarding state officers by adding a new section that requires legislative approval for any overseas travel by the governor that is funded by taxpayer money. Specifically, it mandates that such travel must be approved through a concurrent resolution, which must be adopted by a majority vote in both houses of the legislature. This new requirement aims to increase transparency and accountability regarding the use of public funds for the governor's travel.

Additionally, the bill outlines specific information that must be included in the concurrent resolution for approval. This includes the dates of travel, the destination, and the purpose of the trip. By establishing these requirements, the bill seeks to ensure that the legislature is informed and involved in decisions related to the governor's overseas travel funded by taxpayers.
