The resolution proposes an amendment to the Constitution of West Virginia, specifically amending section 19 of article VI. The amendment stipulates that the governor must issue a proclamation convening the Legislature for a special session at least five days prior to the actual convening. This change aims to ensure that there is adequate notice for the Legislature's convening, thereby enhancing transparency and allowing for better preparation among legislators and the public.

The resolution has been introduced and referred to the Committee on the Judiciary, with plans to submit the proposed amendment to the voters during the next general election in 2026. It is designated as "Amendment No. 1" and is officially titled the "Notice of Convening of Special Session of the Legislature Amendment." The amendment seeks to clarify the governor's responsibilities regarding the timing of the proclamation for special sessions, ensuring that the process is more structured and predictable.
