Committee appointed to notify Governor that the Legislature is in session

This procedural resolution appoints a six-member committee (three Senate members named by the Senate Presiding Officer and three House members named by the House Speaker) to formally notify the Alabama Governor that the Legislature is in session and ready to conduct business. It does not change laws or affect constituents but establishes a routine process for legislative communication with the Governor. The bill focuses solely on the administrative step of informing the Governor at the start of a legislative session.
