Notify Governor 136th General Assembly in session
This is a procedural House Concurrent Resolution (HCR 1) that establishes a formal tradition for the start of the 136th General Assembly. It directs the appointment of a committee to personally visit the Governor and formally notify him that both legislative houses are now in session. The bill does not create new laws, affect any specific group, or change policy - it solely follows a standard ceremonial step. The resolution was adopted on January 6 and 8, 2025, to mark the assembly's convening. As a procedural measure, it has no substantive policy impact.
