SBi28 was passed to third reading. SB 303 ON SECOND READING (S. Thompson - House Sponsor) SB 303, A bill to be entitled An Act relating to the continuation and functions of the Board of Law Examiners.

10 th LEGISLATURE REGULAR SESSION SB POINT OF ORDER Representative Stickland raised a point of order against further consideration of SB 303 under Rule 4, Section 32(c)(3) of the House Rules on the grounds that the committee report is incorrect. The speaker overruled the point of order and submitted the following statement: Rule 4, Section 32(c)(3) of the House Rules requires the bill analysis to include "a statement indicating whether or not any rulemaking authority is expressly delegated... and, if so, identifying the sections of the measure in which that rulemaking authority is delegated." Representative Stickland specifically argues that the bill analysis fails to identify express rulemaking authority either by the Supreme Court of Texas or the State Board of Law Examiners. He argues that key components of the bill are not expressly or sufficiently described. While the bill makes reference to "supreme court rules," this is not new authority granted to the Supreme Court of Texas but rather the authority already exists under Article V, Section 31 of the Texas Constitution and other law. Representative Stickland also alleges the bill analysis fails to identify the rulemaking authority of the Board of Law Examiners. We have scoured the bill and can find no reference to rulemaking power given to that board, nor have we been pointed to any. Finally, Representative Stickland argues that the senate committee report set out rulemaking authority in the bill. He is correct the senate report did so. However, the senate bill analysis would be in error under the House Rules. Neither Section 5 nor Section 6 of the senate bill, nor the house substitute, would require the rulemaking notation found in the senate bill analysis because none of the affected sections of the bill before the house contain an express, independent grant of new rulemaking authority. See 83 H.J. Reg (2013) (Miles point of order on CSHBi500). Further, the bill analysis is neither inaccurate nor materially misleading. Accordingly, the point of order is respectfully overruled. Amendment No. 1 On behalf of Representative Krause, Representative Leach offered the following amendment to SBi303: Floor Packet Page No. 2 Amend SBi303 by adding the following appropriately numbered SECTION to the bill and renumbering subsequent SECTIONS of the bill accordingly: SECTIONi.iiSection , Government Code, is amended by adding Subsection (a-1) to read as follows: (a-1)iiin adopting rules on eligibility for examination for a license to practice law, the supreme court shall ensure that no rule limits, hinders, disadvantages, or otherwise adversely affects a person s admission to the practice of law on the basis of a person s sincerely held religious belief.

11 Monday, May 15, 2017 HOUSE JOURNAL 71st Day 3467 Amendment No. 2 Representative Moody offered the following amendment to Amendment No.i1: Amend Amendment No.i1 by Krause to SBi303 (page 2, prefiled amendments packet) on line 8 by striking "limits, hinders, disadvantages, or otherwise" and substituting "substantially and". Amendment No. 2 was adopted. (Rinaldi recorded voting no.)
