An Act in furtherance of the Citizens Commission concerning a Constitutional Amendment to secure government of the people

This bill revives and extends the operations of the Citizens Commission, a group established in 2018 to advocate for a constitutional amendment to secure government of the people. The legislation amends existing laws to ensure the commission continues its work until a proposed amendment is officially ratified, while also providing the commission with administrative support from the governor's office. Key provisions include updating the rules for appointing commission members to require consultation with minority leaders and establishing a clear process for filling vacancies within specific timeframes. Additionally, the bill mandates that the commission issue an annual report analyzing federal constitutional amendments related to campaign finance and offering recommendations for future legislative actions.
