The 2022 special session technically started on July 6, the day Indiana Gov. Eric Holcomb, R, called the general assembly to meet, but it was delayed a week before it was scheduled to start to July 25.
Lawmakers will need to complete their work by Aug. 14, 40 days after the special session started on July 6. The regular session, by law, starts “on the Tuesday next after the second Monday” of January each year. They can meet on another day, or at a place besides the Indiana Statehouse, if appointed by law.
In 2018, a special session was called by Holcomb for the general assembly to pass several bills, including House Bill 1315. The bill, which passed during the special session, would give Ball State University assume responsibility for Muncie Community Schools and appoint school board members.
