When a bill which originated in one house is 6 12 amended in the other house, the house originating the 6 13 bill may amend the amendment, concur in full in the 6 14 amendment, or refuse to concur in full in the 6 15 amendment. Precedence of motions shall be in that 6 16 order. The amendment of the other house shall not be 6 17 ruled out of order based on a question of germaneness. 6 18Aa. If the house originating the bill concurs in 6 19 the amendment, the bill shall then be immediately 6 20 placed upon its final passage. 6 21Bb. If the house originating the bill refuses to 6 22 concur in the amendment, the bill shall be returned to 6 23 the amending house which shall either: 6 241.(1) Recede, after which the bill shall be read 6 25 for the last time and immediately placed upon its 6 26 final passage; or 6 272.(2) Insist, which will send the bill to a 6 28 conference committee. 6 29Cc. If the house originating the bill amends the 6 30 amendment, that house shall concur in the amendment as 7 1 amended and the bill shall be immediately placed on 7 2 final passage, and shall be returned to the other 7 3 house. The other house cannot further amend the bill. 7 41.(1) If the amending house which gave second 7 5 consideration to the bill concurs in the amendment to 7 6 the amendment, the bill shall then be immediately 7 7 placed upon its final passage. 7 82.(2) If the amending house refuses to concur in 7 9 the amendment to the amendment, the bill shall be 7 10 returned to the house originating the bill which shall 7 11 either: 7 12a.(a) Recede, after which the bill shall be read 7 13 for the last time as amended and immediately placed 7 14 upon its final passage; or 7 15b.(b) Insist, which will send the bill to a 7 16 conference committee. 7 17II2. A motion to recede has precedence over a 7 18 motion to insist. Failure to recede means to insist; 7 19 and failure to insist means to recede. 7 20III3. A motion to lay on the table or to 7 21 indefinitely postpone shall be out of order with 7 22 respect to motions to recede from or insist upon and 7 23 to amendments to bills which have passed both houses. 7 24IV4. A motion to concur, refuse to concur, 7 25 recede, insist, or adopt a conference committee report 7 26 is in order even though the subject matter has 7 27 previously been acted upon. 7 28 Rule 13 7 29 Conference Committee 7 30 1. Within one legislative day after either house 8 1 insists upon an amendment to a bill, the presiding 8 2 officer of the house, after consultation with the 8 3 majority leader, shall appoint three majority party 8 4 members and, after consultation with the minority 8 5 leader, shall appoint two minority party members to a 8 6 conference committee. The majority leader of the 8 7 senate, after consultation with the president, shall 8 8 appoint three majority party members and, after 8 9 consultation with and approval by the minority leader, 8 10 shall appoint two minority party members to a 8 11 conference committee. The papers shall remain with 8 12 the house that originated the bill. 8 13 2. The conference committee shall meet before the 8 14 end of the next legislative day after their 8 15 appointment, shall select a chair and shall discuss 8 16 the controversy. 8 17 3. The authority of the first conference committee 8 18 shall cover only issues related to provisions of the 8 19 bill and amendments to the bill which were adopted by 8 20 either the senate or the house of representatives and 8 21 on which the senate and house of representatives 8 22 differed. If a conference committee report is not 8 23 acted upon because such action would violate this 8 24 subsection of this rule, the inaction on the report 8 25 shall constitute refusal to adopt the conference 8 26 committee report and shall have the same effect as if 8 27 the conference committee had disagreed. 8 28 4. An agreement on recommendations must be 8 29 approved by at least three members from each house. 8 30 The committee shall submit two originals of the report 9 1 signed by at least three members of each house with 9 2 one signed original and three copies to be submitted 9 3 to each house. The report shall first be acted upon 9 4 in the house originating the bill. Such action, 9 5 including all papers, shall be immediately referred by 9 6 the secretary of the senate or the chief clerk of the 9 7 house of representatives to the other house. 9 8 5. The report of agreement is debatable, but 9 9 cannot be amended. If the report contains recommended 9 10 amendments to the bill, adoption of the report shall 9 11 automatically adopt all amendments contained therein. 9 12 After the report is adopted, there shall be no more 9 13 debate, and the bill shall immediately be placed upon 9 14 its final passage. 9 15 6. Refusal of either house to adopt the conference 9 16 committee report has the same effect as if the 9 17 committee had disagreed. 9 18 7. If the conference committee fails to reach 9 19 agreement, a report of such failure signed by at least 9 20 three members of each house shall be given promptly to 9 21 each house. The bill shall be returned to the house 9 22 that originated the bill, the members of the committee 9 23 shall be immediately discharged, and a new conference 9 24 committee appointed in the same manner as the first 9 25 conference committee. 9 26 8. The authority of a second or subsequent 9 27 conference committee shall cover free conference 9 28 during which the committee has authority to propose 9 29 amendments to any portion of a bill provided the 9 30 amendment is within the subject matter content of the 10 1 bill as passed by the house of origin or as amended by 10 2 the second house. 10 3 Rule 14 10 4 Enrollment and Authentication of Bills 10 5 A bill or resolution which has passed both houses 10 6 shall be enrolled in the house of origin under the 10 7 direction of either the secretary or the chief clerk 10 8 and its house of origin shall be certified by the 10 9 endorsement of the secretary of the senate or the 10 10 chief clerk of the house. 10 11 After enrollment, each bill shall be signed by the 10 12 president of the senate and by the speaker of the 10 13 house. 10 14 Rule 15 10 15 Concerning other Enrollments 10 16 All resolutions and other matters which are to be 10 17 presented to the governor for approval shall be 10 18 enrolled, signed, and presented in the same manner as 10 19 bills. 10 20 All resolutions and other matters which are not to 10 21 be presented to the governor or the secretary of state 10 22 shall be enrolled, signed, and retained permanently by 10 23 the secretary of the senate or chief clerk of the 10 24 house. 10 25 Rule 16 10 26 Transmission of Bills to the Governor 10 27 After a bill has been signed in each house, it 10 28 shall be presented by the house of origin to the 10 29 governor by either the secretary of the senate or the 10 30 chief clerk of the house. The secretary or the chief 11 1 clerk shall report the date of the presentation, which 11 2 shall be entered upon the journal of the house of 11 3 origin. 11 4 Rule 17 11 5 Fiscal Notes 11 6 A fiscal note shall be attached to any bill or 11 7 joint resolution which reasonably could have an annual 11 8 effect of at least one hundred thousand dollars or a 11 9 combined total effect within five years after 11 10 enactment of five hundred thousand dollars or more on 11 11 the aggregate revenues, expenditures, or fiscal 11 12 liability of the state or its subdivisions. This rule 11 13 does not apply to appropriation and ways and means 11 14 measures where the total effect is stated in dollar 11 15 amounts. 11 16 Each fiscal note shall state in dollars the 11 17 estimated effect of the bill on the revenues, 11 18 expenditures, and fiscal liability of the state or its 11 19 subdivisions during the first five years after 11 20 enactment. The information shall specifically note 11 21 the fiscal impact for the first two years following 11 22 enactment and the anticipated impact for the 11 23 succeeding three years. The fiscal note shall specify 11 24 the source of the information. Sources of funds for 11 25 expenditures under the bill shall be stated, including 11 26 federal funds. If the fiscal director cannot make an 11 27 accurate estimate, the director shall state the best 11 28 available estimate or shall state that no dollar 11 29 estimate can be made and state concisely the reason. 11 30 The preliminary determination of whether the bill 12 1 appears to require a fiscal note shall be made by the 12 2 legislative service bureau which shall send a copy of 12 3 the request to the legislative fiscal bureau unless 12 4 the requestor specifies the request is to be 12 5 confidential. Upon completion of the bill draft, the 12 6 legislative service bureau shall immediately send a 12 7 copy to the legislative fiscal director for review. 12 8 When a committee reports a bill to the floor, the 12 9 committee shall state in the report whether a fiscal 12 10 note is or is not required. 12 11 The legislative fiscal director shall review all 12 12 bills placed on the senate or house calendars to 12 13 determine whether the bills are subject to this rule. 12 14 Additionally, a legislator may request the 12 15 preparation of a fiscal note by the legislative fiscal 12 16 bureau for any bill or joint resolution introduced 12 17 which reasonably could be subject to this rule. 12 18 The legislative fiscal director shall cause to be 12 19 prepared and shall approve a fiscal note within a 12 20 reasonable time after receiving a request or 12 21 determining that a bill is subject to this rule. All 12 22 fiscal notes approved by the legislative fiscal bureau 12 23 director shall be transmitted immediately to the 12 24 secretary of the senate or the chief clerk of the 12 25 house, after notifying the sponsor of the bill that a 12 26 fiscal note has been prepared, for publication in the 12 27 daily clip sheet. The secretary of the senate or 12 28 chief clerk of the house shall attach the fiscal note 12 29 to the bill as soon as it is available. 12 30 The legislative fiscal director may request the 13 1 cooperation of any state department or agency in 13 2 preparing a fiscal note. 13 3 A revised fiscal note may be requested by a 13 4 legislator if the fiscal effect of the bill has been 13 5 changed by adoption of an amendment. However, a 13 6 request for a revised fiscal note shall not delay 13 7 action on a bill unless so ordered by the presiding 13 8 officer of the house in which the bill is under 13 9 consideration. 13 10 If a date for adjournment has been set, then a 13 11 constitutional majority of the house in which the bill 13 12 is under consideration may waive the fiscal note 13 13 requirement during the three days prior to the date 13 14 set for adjournment. 13 15 Rule 18 13 16 Legislative Interns 13 17 Legislators may arrange student internships during 13 18 the legislative session with Iowa college, university, 13 19 or law school students, for which the students may 13 20 receive college credit at the discretion of their 13 21 schools. Each legislator is allowed only one intern 13 22 at a time per legislative session, and all interns 13 23 must be registered with the offices of the secretary 13 24 of the senate and the chief clerk of the house. 13 25 The purpose of the legislative intern program shall 13 26 be:1)to provide useful staff services to 13 27 legislators not otherwise provided by the general 13 28 assembly;2)to give interested college, graduate, and 13 29 law school students practical experience in the 13 30 legislative process as well as providing a meaningful 14 1 educational experience; and3)to enrich the 14 2 curriculum of participating colleges and universities. 14 3 The secretary of the senate and the chief clerk of 14 4 the house or their designees shall have the following 14 5 responsibilities as regards the legislative intern 14 6 program: 14 7 1. Identify a supervising faculty member at each 14 8 participating institution who shall be responsible for 14 9 authorizing students to participate in the intern 14 10 program. 14 11 2. Provide legislators with a list of 14 12 participating institutions and the names of 14 13 supervising professors to contact if interested in 14 14 arranging for an intern. 14 15 3. Provide interns with name badges which will 14 16 allow them access to the floor of either house when 14 17 required to be present by the legislators for whom 14 18 they work. 14 19 4. Provide orientation materials to interns prior 14 20 to the convening of each session. 14 21 Rule 19 14 22 Administrative Rules Review Committee Bills 14 23 and Rule Referrals 14 24 A bill which relates to departmental rules and 14 25 which is approved by the administrative rules review 14 26 committee by a majority of the committee's members of 14 27 each house is eligible for introduction in either 14 28 house at any time and must be referred to a standing 14 29 committee, which must take action on the bill within 14 30 three weeks of referral, except bills referred to 15 1 appropriations and ways and means committees. 15 2 If, on or after July 1, 1999, the administrative 15 3 rules review committee delays the effective date of a 15 4 rule until the adjournment of the next regular session 15 5 of the general assembly and the speaker of the house 15 6 or the president of the senate refers the rule to a 15 7 standing committee, the standing committee shall 15 8 review the rule within twenty-one days of the referral 15 9 and shall take formal committee action by sponsoring a 15 10 joint resolution to disapprove the rule, by proposing 15 11 legislation relating to the rule, or by refusing to 15 12 propose a joint resolution or legislation concerning 15 13 the rule. The standing committee shall inform the 15 14 administrative rules review committee of the committee 15 15 action taken concerning the rule. 15 16 Rule 20 15 17 Time of Committee Passage and Consideration of Bills 15 18 1. This rule does not apply to concurrent or 15 19 simple resolutions, joint resolutions nullifying 15 20 administrative rules, senate confirmations, or bills 15 21 passed by both houses in different forms. Subsection 15 22 2 of this rule does not apply to appropriations bills, 15 23 ways and means bills, legalizing acts, administrative 15 24 rules review committee bills, bills cosponsored by 15 25 majority and minority floor leaders of one house, 15 26 bills in conference committee, and companion bills 15 27 sponsored by the majority floor leaders of both houses 15 28 after consultation with the respective minority floor 15 29 leaders. For the purposes of this rule, a joint 15 30 resolution is considered as a bill. To be considered 16 1 an appropriations or ways and means bill for the 16 2 purposes of this rule, the appropriations committee or 16 3 the ways and means committee must either be the 16 4 sponsor of the bill or the committee of first referral 16 5 in the originating house. 16 6 2. To be placed on the calendar in the house of 16 7 origin, a bill must be first reported out of the 16 8 committee of first referral by Friday of the 9th week 16 9 of the first session and the 7th week of the second 16 10 session. To be placed on the calendar in the other 16 11 house, a bill must be first reported out of the 16 12 committee of first referral by Friday of the 12th week 16 13 of the first session and the 10th week of the second 16 14 session. 16 15 3. During the 10th week of the first session and 16 16 the 8th week of the second session, each house shall 16 17 consider only bills originating in that house and 16 18 unfinished business. During the 13th week of the 16 19 first session and the 11th week of the second session, 16 20 each house shall consider only bills originating in 16 21 the other house and unfinished business. Beginning 16 22 with the 14th week of the first session and the 12th 16 23 week of the second session, each house shall consider 16 24 only bills passed by both houses, bills exempt from 16 25 subsection 2, and unfinished business. 16 26 4. A motion to reconsider filed and not disposed 16 27 of on an action taken on a bill or resolution which is 16 28 subject to a deadline under this rule may be called up 16 29 at any time before or after the day of the deadline by 16 30 the person filing the motion or after the deadline by 17 1 the majority floor leader, notwithstanding any other 17 2 rule to the contrary. 17 3 Rule 21 17 4 Resolutions 17 5 1. A "concurrent resolution" is a resolution to be 17 6 adopted by both houses of the general assembly which 17 7 expresses the sentiment of the general assembly or 17 8 deals with temporary legislative matters. It may 17 9 authorize the expenditure, for any legislative 17 10 purpose, of funds appropriated to the general 17 11 assembly. A concurrent resolution is not limited to, 17 12 but may provide for a joint convention of the general 17 13 assembly, adjournment or recess of the general 17 14 assembly, or requests to a state agency or to the 17 15 general assembly or a committee. A concurrent 17 16 resolution requires the affirmative vote of a majority 17 17 of the senators or representatives present and voting 17 18 unless otherwise specified by statute. A concurrent 17 19 resolution does not require the governor's approval 17 20 unless otherwise specified by statute. A concurrent 17 21 resolution shall be filed with the secretary of the 17 22 senate or the chief clerk of the house. A concurrent 17 23 resolution shall be printed in the bound journal after 17 24 its adoption. 17 25 2. A "joint resolution" is a resolution which 17 26 requires for approval the affirmative vote of a 17 27 constitutional majority of each house of the general 17 28 assembly. A joint resolution which appropriates funds 17 29 or enacts temporary laws must contain the clause "Be 17 30 It Enacted by the General Assembly of the State of 18 1 Iowa:", is equivalent to a bill, and must be 18 2 transmitted to the governor for his approval. A joint 18 3 resolution which proposes amendments to the 18 4 Constitution of the State of Iowa, ratifies amendments 18 5 to the Constitution of the United States, proposes a 18 6 request to Congress or an agency of the government of 18 7 the United States of America, proposes to Congress an 18 8 amendment to the Constitution of the United States of 18 9 America, nullifies an administrative rule, or creates 18 10 a special commission or committee must contain the 18 11 clause "Be It Resolved by the General Assembly of the 18 12 State of Iowa:" and shall not be transmitted to the 18 13 governor. A joint resolution shall not amend a 18 14 statute in the Code of Iowa. 18 15 Rule 22 18 16 Nullification Resolutions 18 17 A "nullification resolution" is a joint resolution 18 18 which nullifies all of an administrative rule, or a 18 19 severable item of an administrative rule adopted 18 20 pursuant to chapter 17A of the Code. A nullification 18 21 resolution shall not amend an administrative rule by 18 22 adding language or by inserting new language in lieu 18 23 of existing language. 18 24 A nullification resolution is debatable, but cannot 18 25 be amended on the floor of the house or senate. The 18 26 effective date of a nullification resolution shall be 18 27 stated in the resolution. Any motions filed to 18 28 reconsider adoption of a nullification resolution must 18 29 be disposed of within one legislative day of the 18 30 filing. 19 1 Rule 23 19 2 Consideration of Vetoes 19 3 1. The senate and house calendar shall include a 19 4 list known as the "Veto Calendar." The veto calendar 19 5 shall consist of: 19 6 a. Bills returned to that house by the governor in 19 7 accordance with Article III, section 16 of the 19 8 Constitution of the State of Iowa. 19 9 b. Appropriations items returned to that house by 19 10 the governor in accordance with Article III, section 19 11 16 of the Constitution of the State of Iowa. 19 12 c. Bills and appropriations items received from 19 13 the other house after that house has voted to override 19 14 a veto of them by the governor. 19 15 2. Vetoed bills and appropriations items shall 19 16 automatically be placed on the veto calendar upon 19 17 receipt. Vetoed bills and appropriations items shall 19 18 not be referred to committee. 19 19 3. Upon first publication in the veto calendar, 19 20 the senate majority leader or the house majority 19 21 leader may call up a vetoed bill or appropriations 19 22 item at any time. 19 23 4. The affirmative vote of two-thirds of the 19 24 members of the body by record roll call is required on 19 25 a motion to override an executive veto or item veto. 19 26 5. A motion to override an executive veto or item 19 27 veto is debatable. A vetoed bill or appropriation 19 28 item cannot be amended in this case. 19 29 6.
