Assembly amendment 7 to Assembly Bill 138 offered by Representative LeMahieu.
Point of Order
Representative Black rose to the point of order that Assembly amendment 7 to
Assembly Bill
138 was not germane under Assembly Rule
54.
Speaker Pro Tempore Staskunas ruled the point of order
well taken.
"As provided under Assembly Rule
54 (1), an amendment is not germane if it "is intended to accomplish a different purpose" than that of the original bill.
Assembly Bill 138 is narrowly drafted to eliminate the Governor's authority to appoint the Secretary of the DNR and return that power to the Natural Resources Board. The bill also provides that a seat on the Natural Resources Board becomes vacant when the term associated with that position expires. The amendment relates to qualifications for the Governor's appointment for members of the Natural Resources Board. It is clear that the amendment has a different intent than the original proposal.
Again under Assembly Rule
54 (1), an amendment is also not germane if it would require, if adopted and passed, a new relating clause for the proposal which would be "substantially different from the proposal's original relating clause." Since the amendment has been introduced as Assembly Bill 84, we can see how the relating clause would need to be altered if this amendment were adopted.
A401
Finally, it is clear that the amendment would substantially expand the scope of the bill and is, therefore, not germane under Assembly Rule
54 (3)(f).
For all of these reasons, I must agree with the gentleman's point of order that the amendment is not germane."
Representative Gottlieb appealed the ruling of the Chair.
The question was: Shall the ruling of the Chair stand as the ruling of the Assembly?
