Title

House of Representatives, Special Order Calendar

Summary

A House resolution to create a special order calendar for the 27th day, making a specific list of bills take precedence over regular business.

What This Bill Does

If enacted, the resolution immediately designates the listed bills as the special and paramount order of business for the 27th legislative day, ahead of any other unfinished or regular business. It directs the House to take up these bills in the order shown on that day. It is a procedural rule that changes how those bills are scheduled and debated, not a standalone law by itself. The bills covered touch topics like retirement plan changes for TRS/ERS, CNG vehicle tax credits, public procurement databases, school funding for supplies, and various other policy items.

Who It Affects

• State employees, teachers, and retirees who would be affected by the TRS/ERS defined-benefit plan changes for new entrants after January 1, 2013 (SB388).
• The general public and business community affected by other listed items (e.g., CNG vehicle tax credits HB462, statewide bid database SB30, classroom supplies funding SB257, and related policy changes).

Key Provisions

• Establishes the special and paramount order of business for the 27th legislative day, giving priority to the specified bills over regular or unfinished business.
• Specifies a list of bills to be treated as special orders (including SB388 on TRS/ERS defined-benefit plan changes for new entrants and HB462 on CNG vehicle tax credits, among others) to be taken up ahead of regular business.
