This joint resolution proposes an amendment to Article 4, Section 5 of the New Mexico Constitution, aiming to modify the structure and limitations of the legislative sessions. The amendment stipulates that each regular session of the legislature shall not exceed forty-five days, regardless of whether it occurs in an odd or even-numbered year. Additionally, it removes the previous restrictions that limited the types of bills that could be considered during even-numbered years, allowing for a broader range of legislative discussions.

Furthermore, the resolution allows for the consideration of veto overrides for bills from any regular, special, or extraordinary legislative session within the same biennium. This change is intended to enhance legislative efficiency and responsiveness. The proposed amendment will be submitted to the public for approval or rejection during the next general election or any special election called for that purpose.
