Regular Session 2021

Title

Sernate, Special Order Calendar

Summary

SR102 creates a special order calendar that designates a list of bills to be treated as the Senate's special, paramount and continuing order of business for the 24th legislative day, taking precedence over all other matters until disposed.

What This Bill Does

It sets a special order of business for the 24th legislative day, giving the listed bills priority over all other matters. The included measures cover topics such as aircraft valuation, sheriff terms of office, law enforcement confidentiality, ABLE savings deductions, daylight saving time, authenticity of collectibles, anti-racial profiling policies, and DA compensation, among others. This status applies only for that day, after which normal procedures resume.

Who It Affects

• Senators and representatives whose bills are listed (e.g., SB299, SB303, SB354, SB231, SB388, SB315, SB91, SB356, along with various HB measures) because their bills are given priority and expedited consideration on the 24th day.
• Legislative staff and chamber leadership who must implement and manage the special order calendar for that day.
• Alabama residents who are affected by the policies within the prioritized bills, as quicker consideration could lead to changes in areas like taxation, public safety, health, utilities, and contracts if those measures advance.

Key Provisions
