INFORMATION
ON BILLS & AMENDMENTS PRINTED
Bills
of the General Assembly
A bill
is printed for distribution at three stages, depending on how far it moves through the
legislative process:
- BILLS
AS INTRODUCED. After a bill is filed with the clerk of the House of representatives or the
Senate, and then read in the chamber of its sponsor, it is considered introduced, and
ordered to be printed.
- GENERAL
ASSEMBLY (GA). The second copy of a bill is printed only after a bill has been adopted
(passed) by the chamber in which it originated. This copy contains any changes, in the
form of amendments, which were adopted on the floor of the originating chamber. The GA
copy is then forwarded to the opposite chamber for its consideration.
-
ENACTED
BILLS. Final version of a bill that has passed both chambers of the General Assembly and
been amended in the opposite chamber or by a conference committee, and enrolled by both
chambers, may be reprinted in its enacted form.
Amendments
Three
types of amendments are printed.
- COMMITTEE
AMENDMENTS. Are changes to a bill proposed by the committee assigned to review it. When
several changes are adopted the bill may be rewritten as a Committee Substitute.
(Committee Substitutes supersede bills as are included in the purchase price of all bills
available by pickup. All other amendments are sold separately.)
- FLOOR
AMENDMENTS. Are changes to a bill proposed by a member when the bill is under
consideration by the full chamber membership.
- CONFERENCE
COMMITTEE REPORTS. Are changes agreed to by selected members of both chambers to reconcile
differences in the same bill resulting from the adoption of different amendments by each
chamber.
