Title

House of Representatives, Special Order Calendar

Summary

A House resolution creating a special order calendar for the 21st legislative day, designating certain bills to be considered with a 10-minute total debate time and taking precedence over regular business.

What This Bill Does

It immediately sets a special, prioritized calendar for the 21st day. It limits the consideration of the listed bills and their accompanying BIR to a combined total of 10 minutes. If a listed bill does not pass within that 10-minute window, it automatically moves back to its position on the regular order calendar. These bills are not eligible for carryover motions.

Who It Affects

• Members of the Alabama House of Representatives, who must debate the listed bills within the 10-minute limit and follow the special order on that day.
• Sponsors or authors of the listed bills (e.g., HB149, HB98, etc.), whose bills are designated for the special order calendar and thus subject to the 10-minute debate limit.

Key Provisions

• Designates the listed bills as the special and paramount order of business for the 21st legislative day, taking precedence over the regular order or any unfinished business.
• Limits consideration of the listed bills and the accompanying BIR to a total of 10 minutes.
• Automatically reverts any listed bill that fails to pass within the 10-minute period to its position on the regular order calendar.
• The listed bills are not subject to motions to carry over temporarily or otherwise.
