What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This resolution amends the assembly rules to prohibit any member or standing

committee from offering any assembly proposal affecting campaign finance laws that

would take effect in the current biennium. The resolution also amends the assembly

rules to prohibit assembly consideration of any senate proposal affecting campaign

finance laws that would take effect in the current biennium.

Votes

Suspending the rules (to take a vote immediately) needs a two-thirds majority — a higher bar than passing the bill, which needs a simple majority. That's why a suspension motion can show more Ayes than the passage vote that follows it. Glossary
