Committee suspends Monday 25-bill limit to clear larger Monday calendar
Summary
Members agreed 'without objection' to suspend the standing 25-bill limit for Monday's calendar, allowing more bills to be placed on that day; the decision was recorded by voice vote and applied immediately to upcoming placements.
During the scheduling sequence a member moved to waive the committee's usual limit on how many bills may be placed on Monday's calendar. Leader Lambert proposed suspending the cap and members agreed by voice: "Without objection, we will suspend the 25 bill limit for Monday," he said, and the chair acknowledged the agreement.
The suspension was procedural and limited to the committee's placement authority for the upcoming Monday calendar; members subsequently placed additional bills on that day. The move removed a constraint on calendar throughput for the immediate floor schedule, enabling a larger set of bills to be set for consideration on Monday.
