A SENATE RESOLUTION

EXPRESSING THE SENSE OF THE SENATE THAT NO PERMANENT LAW SHOULD BE INCLUDED IN THE GENERAL APPROPRIATIONS BILL FOR FISCAL YEAR 2005-2006, WHEN THE BILL IS UNDER CONSIDERATION IN THE SENATE

Whereas, the long established practice of adding new permanent law in what should be a temporary spending measure has sometimes had the effect of increasing appropriations above what they would otherwise be if the permanent law measure had been fully vetted and debated in the committee process; and

Whereas, it is essential that the Senate take no action that would require increased overall appropriations because of legislation that considered in isolation could not pass the Senate. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the Senate:

That the members of the Senate, by this resolution, express the sense of the Senate that no permanent law should be included in the general appropriations bill for fiscal year 2005-2006, when the bill is under consideration in the Senate.
