SPECIAL ORDER CALENDAR

Summary

HR256 sets a special order calendar for the 28th legislative day, designating a list of Senate bills as the priority and taking precedence over regular business.

What This Bill Does

If adopted, immediately designates the listed Senate bills as the special and paramount order of business for the 28th legislative day, ahead of any regular or unfinished business. This scheduling change affects when and how those bills are debated and voted on. It does not change the content of the bills themselves. The bills covered relate to crime, public contracting, education, juvenile justice, taxation, corrections, and other policy areas.

Who It Affects

• House members and staff who run floor debates, since these Senate bills are designated as the special order and will take precedence over other business on the 28th day.
• People and groups affected by the listed policy areas (e.g., crime, public contracting, education, juvenile justice, tax exemptions, corrections), because these bills would be considered earlier and could lead to changes in policy if they pass.

Key Provisions

• Immediately upon adoption, designates the listed Senate bills as the special and paramount order of business for the 28th legislative day.
• The order of bills in the calendar includes SB206, SB261, SB279, SB94, SB99, SB56 (with sub), SB292, SB223, SB309, SB198, SB184 (with sub), SB224, SB281, SB285, SB176, SB103 (with sub), and SB76.
• These bills take precedence over regular and unfinished business, meaning they will be debated and acted on before other items on that day.
