A special session is a meeting of a group of people, such as a government or organization, that is called for a specific purpose or issue. It is different from a regular session, which happens on a regular schedule.
Special Session Defined. A “special” session is one convened pursuant to a proclamation issued by the Governor. Article IV, Section 3(b) of the state Constitution specifies, in part: “on extraordinary occasions the Governor by proclamation may cause the Legislature to assemble in special session.
Common reasons for a governor to call a special session include responding to economic downturns or other fiscal problems; federal legislation; disasters; and war. Some special sessions addressed more than one of these issues.
