Ruling on the Point of Order
On Tuesday, October 25 (page 607 of the Assembly Journal), Representative Ziegelbauer rose to the point of order that Assembly Substitute Amendment 1 to
Assembly Bill 93 was not germane, citing, generally, Assembly Rule
54 and that the amendment in question significantly expanded the scope of
Assembly Bill 93.
Assembly Rule
54 states, "(1) General statement: The assembly may not consider any assembly amendment or assembly substitute amendment that relates to a different subject or is intended to accomplish a different purpose than that of the proposal to which it relates or that, if adopted and passed, would require a relating clause for the proposal which is substantially different from the proposal's original relating clause or that would totally alter the nature of the proposal."
Representative Kramer found the point of order
not well-taken under Assembly Rule
54 (4)(b), that finds an amendment germane when it "accomplishes the same purpose in a different manner".
