Senate, Special Order Calendar

Summary

SR73 is a Senate resolution that designates a special order calendar, giving a specific list of bills priority as the main business for the Twentieth Legislative Day.

What This Bill Does

If adopted, it would designate the listed bills as the special order of business for the Twentieth Legislative Day, taking precedence over all other matters until they are disposed of. The items cover topics such as pharmacy benefit manager disclosures, regulation of alternative nicotine products, municipal taxes, capital punishment proceedings, manufactured home titles, CDL restrictions for under 21, vehicle licensing, entertainment districts, mental health appeals, fortified roof endorsements, eminent domain, and other related issues.
