Senate resolution relating to electronic participation in Senate Sessions
This Senate resolution establishes a temporary rule allowing Vermont Senators to participate in Senate sessions electronically under specific emergency circumstances. The provision permits remote participation when a Senator has tested positive for or is awaiting test results for COVID-19, is caring for a household member with COVID-19, or faces a temporary health or care emergency. The rule limits electronic participation to two consecutive days for general emergencies unless the Rules Committee approves a longer duration, and it remains in effect through March 3, 2023.
