BILL HISTORY
To allow every member who wishes to speak on any matter before Legislative
Council, to prevent rambling, repetitive grand standing, and to encourage effective
resolution of Council matters, this bill asks each member if they wish to speak on a
matter. This will prevent the premature ending of debate and discussion when
others may wish to speak or ask further questions.
BILL SUMMARY
This bill asks each member of Council if they wish to speak on matters at hand.
BE IT ENACTED by the Legislative Council of the University of Colorado Student
Union, THAT:
SECTION 1:

Replace Legislative Council's Standing Rule XIV. Section C
with the following language:
C. The president Pro-Tern shall at the appropriate time for
discussion or debate and after sponsorship speeches, when
appropriate, ask any member if they wish to speak on the
matter at hand. The President Pro-Tern shall keep a list, in
the order received, of members who wish to speak; provided
that no member (including sponsors) may speak again on the
matter at hand until everyone has had one chance to speak.
Once each member has had one chance to speak, the President
Pro-T em will be allowed to recognize any member to speak in
any order.
