What this amendment would do

SA 5065, submitted by Mr. LUJAN, aims to add a section to title IV of S. Con. Res. 33.

The purpose of this amendment is to create a point of order in the Senate. This means it would not be in order to consider any:

  • Bill
  • Joint resolution
  • Motion
  • Amendment
  • Amendment between the Houses
  • Conference report

That would increase barriers to Americans exercising their right to vote.

To waive or suspend this rule, or to sustain an appeal of the Chair's ruling, an affirmative vote of three-fifths of the Members of the Senate is required.
