Order relative to establishing temporary committees on Ways and Means and Bills in the Third Reading
This Senate order creates temporary committees for Ways and Means and Bills in Third Reading, bypassing standard Senate rules. It uses the same committee members from the 193rd General Court until permanent committees are appointed. The bill does not change policy but adjusts procedural structure for the current legislative session. (Procedural bill, summary limited to key facts.)
