The bill H. 3528 proposes an amendment to Rule 5.1 of the Rules of the House of Representatives in South Carolina, specifically regarding the introduction and referral of bills and resolutions. The amendment stipulates that any bill or resolution sponsored by a majority of the House must be placed directly on the House calendar for consideration, bypassing the usual referral to a committee. This change aims to streamline the legislative process for bills that have significant support among House members.
Additionally, the bill retains existing provisions regarding the introduction of bills without prior notice, the Speaker's authority to delay referral for review, and the handling of bills appropriating revenue or creating study committees. The amendment is designed to enhance the efficiency of legislative proceedings by ensuring that majority-backed proposals receive timely consideration on the House floor.
