In keeping with tradition, there were no formal sessions of the House and Senate last week, which was April vacation week for Massachusetts students.
This week, Beacon Hill Roll Call reports on proposed amendments filed by representatives and senators to amend the state constitution. Any proposed constitutional amendment sponsored by legislators needs the votes of a majority of the 200-member Legislature in the 2021 to 2022 session and the same in the 2023 to 2024 session in order to appear on the November 2024 ballot for voters to decide. None of these proposals have yet been approved, but hearings have already been held on most of them.
