Final Passage of a Bill After perfection and reprinting, the bill goes on the calendar for third reading and fi nal passage. When the bill is reached in the order of business, any member may speak for or against its passage, but no further amendments can be offered. At the conclusion of debate, a recorded vote is taken. Approval of a constitutional majority of the elected members (18 in the Sen- ate and 82 in the House) is required for fi nal passage. Passage of the bill is then reported to the other chamber where it is read a second time, referred to committee for hearing, reported by committee, read a third time and offered for fi nal approval. If further amendments or substitutes are approved, these are reported to the originating house with a request that the changes be approved. If the originating house does not approve, a conference may be requested and members from each house are designated as a conference committee. Upon agreement by the conference committee (usually a compromise of differences), each reports to its own house on the committee’s recommendation. The originating house acts fi rst on the conference committee version of the bill. If it is approved it goes to the other house; upon approval there, the bill is declared “truly agreed to and fi nally passed.” If either house rejects the conference committee report, it may be returned to the same or a newly appointed committee for further conferences. Upon fi nal passage, a bill is ordered enrolled, printed in its fi nal form, and the bills are closely compared and proofed for errors. 84 OFFICIAL MANUAL
