Title

Senate, Special Order Calendar

Summary

SR63 is a Senate resolution that designates several education and related appropriation bills as the Senate's special, priority order of business through the 20th legislative day.

What This Bill Does

It creates a special order calendar that places specific bills ahead of all other Senate business. It names HB187 (education budget), HB190 and HB189 (supplemental appropriations for education and related agencies), HB191 (Talladega College), HB192 (Lyman Ward Military Academy), HB193 (Tuskegee University), and HB401 (changes to privilege assessments for nursing facilities) as priority items. These bills will be discussed and decided before other matters until they are disposed of by the 20th Legislative Day. The resolution itself does not enact policy; it only sets the order of consideration for these bills.
