AI Summary
This bill establishes special procedures for considering amendments to Senate Bill No. 1979, which aims to create a comprehensive adaptation management plan to address climate change. Specifically, it mandates that amendments must be filed electronically with the Clerk of the House by a certain deadline, with exceptions for amendments from the committee on ways and means. The Clerk will notify sponsors of received amendments and assign them numbers, and printed copies will serve as the official versions. The bill also clarifies that amendments should not introduce entirely new subjects and allows members to withdraw their amendments from consolidated amendments to offer them individually, with consolidated amendments not being divisible. Any amendment failing to meet these specific procedural requirements will be considered withdrawn.
