Title

House of Representatives, Special Order Calendar

Summary

HR307 creates a special order calendar for the Alabama House that puts a set of Senate bills on the agenda as priority for the 30th legislative day.

What This Bill Does

If adopted, the resolution makes the listed Senate bills the special and paramount business for the 30th day, taking precedence over all other work. The bills are to be considered in the order shown in the resolution. It does not enact policy itself, but moves these bills ahead in the schedule; one item (SB97) would repeal and amend specific existing statutes, while the others address various policy areas such as emergency health powers, alcohol sales, water utility oversight, sentencing procedures, lodge taxation, firearms enforcement, AI usage limits, energy policy, local contracting, prisoner business programs, and protections for minors.
