New Legislative Session Begins Jan. 6

The Pennsylvania  General Assembly will convene on Jan. 6 for a swearing-in ceremony, signaling the beginning of a new legislative session, reports State Rep. Jim Cox (R-129)

All members of the state House of Representatives will take the oath of office to serve a new two-year term.

Any bills that were introduced and in various stages of approval in the General Assembly, but did not become law, expired with the end of the current session and must be re-introduced, he said.

The new makeup of the state House and Senate – with many new representatives and senators taking office – also means that bills that did not have enough support in previous years may have enough votes to be approved by the General Assembly, he said.
