A bill that would put a cap on the number of bills a legislator can introduce has been introduced by Republican Assemblywoman Robin Titus of Wellington. The idea is to cut back the total number of pieces of legislation the Assembly and Senate have to deal with each session. She says there are so many now that lawmakers don’t have the time to carefully consider each one, which results in measures that become law, but are flawed. Titus suggests if there are fewer bills each session, it’s possible those kinds of problems could be reduced. The bill is AB256, and it. would reduce the number of measures an incumbent member of the Assembly can request from 10 to eight and the number of bills each senator can ask be drafted from 20 to 15. Newly elected Assembly members would get five instead of six bill drafts and senators nine instead of the current 12.
