Regular Session 2012

Title

Senate, Special Order Calendar

Summary

SR45 sets the Senate's Special Order Calendar for the 10th day of the 2012 Regular Session, listing several bills to be treated as priority.

What This Bill Does

It designates the order of business for that day and makes SB257, SB139, SB16, and SB148 the priority items. The bills cover topics such as K-12 classroom supplies funding and rules by the State Superintendent of Education; roadwork contract liability when projects are deemed substantially compliant; expanded identity theft definitions and higher penalties; and enhanced penalties plus a new crime of aggravated criminal surveillance. The resolution itself changes only the schedule for consideration, not the substance of the bills.

Who It Affects

• Public schools and K-12 students (through potential classroom supplies funding and related rules)
• Roadway contractors, counties, and local governments (through liability provisions on highway project contracts)

Key Provisions

• SB257: Pertains to K-12 classroom supplies and an appropriation from the Education Trust Fund; requires the State Superintendent of Education to promulgate rules related to this topic
• SB139: Changes when liability ends for roadway contractors—liability and responsibility cease upon acceptance that a highway project is in substantial compliance by the Transportation Department, county, or local government
• SB16: Expands the crime of identity theft to include obtaining employment through use of another person's identity and increases penalties
• SB148: Creates aggravated criminal surveillance and imposes enhanced penalties for surveillance intended to arouse or gratify sexual purposes
