Summary

Session
2025 Regular Session
Title
SPECIAL ORDER CALENDAR
Summary

SR12 is a Senate resolution that sets a special, precedence-based calendar for the third legislative day, listing certain bills to be considered before regular business.

What This Bill Does

If adopted, it designates the third day as a special order and places seven Senate bills (SB70, SB79, SB4, SB62, SB82, SB66, SB78) at the front of the agenda. Those bills would be taken up ahead of other business, though they would still be subject to debate and voting like any other measure. The resolution does not change the substance of the bills; it only controls scheduling.

Who It Affects
  • Senate members and legislative staff — responsible for implementing and enforcing the special order calendar.
  • Alabama residents and institutions affected by the listed bills’ policy areas — such as veterans and families (SB70), schools and related facilities (SB4, SB79), license holders (SB62), and those involved in criminal law and enforcement (SB82, SB66, SB78); their policies could be debated or enacted sooner or later depending on the schedule.
Key Provisions
  • Declares a special and paramount order of business for the Senate on the third legislative day.
  • On adoption, places SB70, SB79, SB4, SB62, SB82, SB66, and SB78 in the special order of business, ahead of regular agenda items.
  • Specifies that this precedence applies to the third day, taking priority over the regular order and any pending or unfinished business.
