SPECIAL ORDER CALENDAR

Summary

SR22 is a Senate resolution that creates a special order calendar, giving nine specific bills priority on the fifth legislative day.

What This Bill Does

It designates SB16, SB33, SB9, SB10, SB5, SB22, SB40, SB45, and SB66 as the special, paramount, and continuing order of business. Those bills would take precedence over all other matters until they are disposed of on the fifth legislative day. This is a procedural rule about agenda control, not a change in policy. The special priority applies only for that specific fifth legislative day.

Key Provisions
