  • “Regular Order” in the US House: a Historical Examination of Special
    The Erosion of “Regular Order” in the U.S. House: A Historical Examination of Special Rules Michael S. Lynch University of Georgia [email protected] Anthony J. Madonna University of Georgia [email protected] Allison S. Vick University of Georgia [email protected] May 11, 2020 The Rules Committee in the U.S. House of Representatives is responsible for drafting special rules for most bills considered on the floor of the House. These “special rules” set the guidelines for floor consideration including rules of debate and the structure of the amending process. In this chapter we assess how the majority party uses special rules and the Rules Committee to further their policy and electoral goals. We explain the work of the Rules Committee and assess how the use of rules has changed over time. Using a dataset of “important” legislation from 1905-2018, we examine the number of enactments considered under restrictive rules and the rise of these types of rules in recent Congresses. Additionally, we use amendment data from the 109th-115th Congresses to analyze the amending process under structured rules. Introduction In October of 2015, Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) was elected Speaker of the House. Among other promises, Ryan pledged to allow more floor amendments through open processes and to return the House to “regular order” (DeBonis 2015). Ryan’s predecessor, former-Speaker John Boehner (R-OH), had been aggressively criticized by members of both parties for his usage of special rules to bar amendments. Despite his optimism, many were skeptical Ryan would be able to deliver on his open rule promises.1 This skepticism appeared to be warranted.

    UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT DISTRICT OF CONNECTICUT RANDALL PEACOCK, : Plaintiff, : : v. : Case No. 3:18cv406(VLB) : DANNEL MALLOY, ET AL., : : Defendants. : RULING AND ORDER The plaintiff, Randall Peacock (“Peacock”), is confined at the Brooklyn Correctional Institution in Brooklyn, Connecticut. He initiated this action by filing a complaint under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 against Governor Dannel Malloy, Lieutenant Governor Nancy Wyman, Connecticut Attorney General George Jepsen, Chief State’s Attorney Kevin T. Kane, Commissioner Scott Semple, Director of Parole – Community Services Joseph Haggan, Chairman Board of Pardons and Paroles Carlton J. Giles and Special Management Unit Parole Officer Frank Mirto. He challenges the sentence of imprisonment and term of special parole imposed pursuant to his pleas of guilty to two counts of illegal sexual contact with a victim in violation of Connecticut General Statutes § 53-21(a)(2) on the ground that the term of special parole violates the Fifth Amendment’s double jeopardy clause. For relief, Peacock requests that the court vacate his term of special parole and award him monetary damages. Pending before the court are two motions to amend the complaint. For the reasons set forth below, the first motion to amend will be granted and the second motion to amend will be denied. I. First Motion to Amend [ECF No. 9] Peacock seeks leave to amend to add four new defendants, to add new facts in support of the claims asserted in the complaint and to add a new request for relief.
