rules, in relation to amendment of bills

RESOLVED, That section 6 of Rule III of the Assembly rules is amended to
read as follows:
º 6. Amendments.

provided by Journal Operations to the chairperson and ranking minority

ment to a bill and one of such amendments is adopted, any of the other
amendments so offered shall, if so requested by the member offering
