House of Representatives, Consent Calendar

Summary

It creates a House Consent Calendar and places two bills (HB328 and HB380) on it for quicker consideration without amendments or debate.

What This Bill Does

The bill establishes a Consent Calendar process in the Alabama House for listed bills, meaning those bills can be approved on a set day without being amended, substituted, debated, or carried over.
