The Utah Legislature wrapped up its 2023 general session by passing the most bills in its recorded history. Let's take a look at the data.
Lawmakers hit a high-water mark for number of bills passed — and you may be surprised by their floor debate stats.
His work is pretty impressive: He looked at the record 929 bills introduced, analyzing which legislators were most likely to get their bills on the floor and through the two chambers. He analyzed the 175 hours that Utah’s 104 legislators spend on debating those bills — even using video analysis software to decipher which bill was being debated at each second of the session.
And what did Brown find? The Legislature in both chambers spent a record low amount of time actually on the floor this year; and a further record low in actually debating the bills. Remember, that’s despite a record high in bills introduced!I was surprised to see, in general, how little time this is.
By the way, what’s the deal with all of that non-bill discussion time in the graph above? Brown’s video data breaks that down, too, from this session:474 minutes are downtime, as the chair waits for the legislators to sit, recess time, “sauntering” time, and so forth.327 minutes are communications from the other chamber, governor, etc.And 46 minutes were used by speaker/president remarks, committee of the whole , governor and chief justice visits.
