§ 2. Committee on Rules. The Committee on Rules may sit at any time

and shall report bills out of committee only if they shall have been

duly reported to the Committee on Rules from a standing committee of

origin, or from a committee of secondary reference, or if the chair of

such standing committee consents, or if the bill was referred to the

Committee on Rules upon introduction. Other than a motion to hold, a

motion to discharge, or a motion to report, no other motion shall be in

order in the Committee on Rules without the consent of the Committee

Chair. The reception and consideration of its report shall always be in

order; debate on its adoption shall not exceed one and one half hours,

one-half hour for each conference, such time to be allotted by the

Conference Leaders; and no other motion, except a motion by the

Temporary President for a call of the Senate, to adjourn or to recess,

shall be in order until the vote of the Senate is had thereon. If the

report be adopted, all inconsistent rules of the Senate shall

automatically be suspended until the subject of such report has been

disposed of, including final action thereon.
