Joint Rule 12A
This bill temporarily suspends an existing rule to allow the Senate to meet for formal business. The change specifically permits the chamber to convene in order to consider reports from conference committees or those received from the House. By overriding the standard restrictions, the legislation enables the Senate to handle these specific legislative tasks without adhering to the usual procedural limitations.
