SPECIAL ORDER CALENDAR

Summary

SR65 sets the special order calendar for the 25th legislative day, making a specific sequence of business the priority and listing certain bills to be taken up that day.

What This Bill Does

It declares that, once adopted, this resolution makes the listed business the special and paramount order of business for the 25th legislative day, ahead of any regular or unfinished business. It sets the order of business for that day as: Introduction of Bills, House Messages, Reports from Standing Committees, and Motions and Resolutions. It enumerates a set of Senate and House measures that will be considered in that order (examples include SB57, SB309, SB317, HB77, HB234, HB330, SB255, SB336, HB351, HB315, HB110, HB182, HB324, HB270, HB209). This is a procedural rule; it changes only the order of business for that day, not the underlying laws themselves.

Who It Affects

• Members of the Alabama Senate (and any House members involved in House Messages) who will consider, debate, and vote on the listed measures on the 25th day.
• Legislative staff and the public following the Legislature, who will see the calendar prioritized and the specified bills taken up that day.

• Provision 4: It clarifies that this is a procedural rule affecting the agenda for that single day, not a change to substantive laws.
