Under current Alabama law, the Legislature has a 105-day window every spring to take up its regular business.
State Rep. Jim Hill, R-Moody, is looking to change that structure though, again filing a bill that would separate the legislative session into two periods.
Hill first filed the bill in the 2024 legislative session, where it failed to gain traction.
While the Legislature has 105 days from the start of session to fulfill its duties, it can only meet for 30 of those days. This has typically been accomplished by the Legislature meeting Tuesday through Thursday with occasional changes.
