A better solution would be to get rid of the 30-day sessions,
lengthen the regular session and have a long session every year.
And pay legislators since they'd be spending more time legislating.
And put limits on how long bills can be considered (no more
45-minute-per-legislator  gerrymandering to delay a bill's passage
and prevent any other bills from coming up), and on how many bills
can be introduced at once.

I believe a few of those ideas are being actively considered.
I wish they'd consider all of them.
