SJ 33 Connecticut Senate · 2025 Regular Session

RESOLUTION TO AMEND THE JOINT RULES OF THE SENATE AND THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.

This bill amends the committee structure for handling executive nominations. It changes the composition of the Committee on Executive and Legislative Nominations, increasing Senate membership from 8 to 9 members and adjusting how they are appointed (from 3+3 to 5+2). The committee will now include 19 House members (with specific leadership roles and appointments) and 9 Senate members. This committee reviews most executive nominations (excluding judicial appointments, workers' compensation judges, and certain board members) before they go to the full chambers. The change directly affects how nominations are processed within the legislature.
