Title

House of Representatives, Special Order Calendar

Summary

This resolution creates a special order calendar that makes a list of Senate bills the priority business for the 29th day, taking precedence over normal House business.

What This Bill Does

It immediately designates the listed bills as the special and paramount order of business for the 29th legislative day, so they are considered before other regular or unfinished items. The list includes various topics such as corrections financing, education funding, probation reforms, memorial rules, guardian and guardianship changes, licensing and regulatory updates, and other policy areas. In short, it moves these bills to the front of the schedule and streamlines their potential passage for the day.

Who It Affects

• Members and staff of the Alabama House of Representatives, because their floor agenda and voting sequence for the 29th day will be adjusted to prioritize the listed bills.
• State residents and organizations affected by the policies in the listed bills (e.g., corrections, education, probation, guardianship, licensing, firefighting benefits, and related areas), since the bills’ consideration and potential changes would occur earlier on the schedule.
