The North Dakota Legislature convened January 5 for the 2021 session with improvements to live streaming and remote technology, making remote testimony by the public possible.
Committee meetings and floor sessions will be carried live.
House and Senate floor sessions have been live-streamed, archived, and indexed online.
Anyone wishing to testify remotely must register online.
In-person testimony may be permitted by the committee chair, although committee rooms will have limited seating due to social distancing, and masks are required.
State lawmakers may participate remotely from home if infected, or from office space in the Capitol if desired.
While some lobbyists have indicated they may testify remotely, no lawmakers have indicated an intent to work remotely.
