(1) Amend Rule 6, Section 18 (Requirements for Placement on a Calendar) as follows:
(A) On page 121, lines 9 and 10, strike "Except as provided in Section 11" and substitute "(a) Except as provided in Subsection (b) of this section or in Section 11".
(B) On page 121, between lines 17 and 18, insert Subsection (b) to read as follows:
(b) No senate bill, senate joint resolution, or senate resolution affecting state policy that was considered by the senate out of its regular calendar order and for which the regular order of business was not suspended by a vote of two-thirds of the senators present may be placed on a calendar until the house authorizes its placement on a calendar under Section 21(a-1) of this rule.
(2) Amend Rule 6, Section 20 (Time Limit for Vote to Place on a Calendar) as follows:
(A) On page 121, line 23, strike "Within" and substitute "(a) Except as provided by Subsection (b) of this section, within [Within].

(b) For a senate bill, senate joint resolution, or senate resolution affecting state policy that was considered by the senate out of its regular calendar order and for which the regular order of business was not suspended by a vote of two-thirds of the senators present, the appropriate calendars committee must vote to place the bill or resolution on an appropriate calendar not later than the 30th day after the date the house authorizes its placement under Section 21(a-1) of this rule. A vote against placement of the bill or resolution on a calendar does not preclude a calendars committee from later voting in favor of placement of the bill or resolution on a calendar.
(3) Amend Rule 6, Section 21 (Motion to Place on a Calendar) as follows:
(A) On page 122, line 4, strike "MOTION TO PLACE ON A CALENDAR. (a) When" and substitute "MOTION TO PLACE OR AUTHORIZE PLACEMENT ON A CALENDAR. (a) Except as provided by Subsection (a-1) of this section, when [When]".

(a-1) When a senate bill, senate joint resolution, or senate resolution affecting state policy that was considered by the senate out of its regular calendar order and for which the regular order of business was not suspended by a vote of two-thirds of the senators present has been in the appropriate calendars committee for two calendar days, exclusive of the calendar day on which it was referred, it is in order for a member to move that the appropriate calendars committee be authorized to place the bill or resolution on the appropriate calendar. This motion must be seconded by five members and requires the affirmative vote of two-thirds of the members present for adoption. Adoption of a motion under this subsection does not require and does not result in the immediate placement of the bill or resolution on the appropriate calendar, and Subsection (a) applies to the senate bill, senate joint resolution, or senate resolution affecting state policy after the adoption of a motion under this subsection.
(C) Strike Subsection (b) (page 122, lines 14 through 18) and substitute the following:
(b) A motion under this section [to place a bill or resolution on a specific calendar of the daily house calendar or on the local, consent, and resolutions calendar] is not a privileged motion and must be made during the routine motion period unless made under a suspension of the rules.
