SR 105 Iowa Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

A resolution amending Senate rules for the Ninety-first General Assembly.

SR 105 is a procedural resolution amending Senate rules for the Ninety-first General Assembly, affecting only the Senate's internal operations and members. It clarifies that "senate resolutions" cover specific non-legislative matters like anniversaries or recognition (Rule 30), requires subcommittee chairs to notify committee chairs 24 hours before voting (Rule 39), and restricts access to the Senate chamber to current members/staff (with limited access for former senators during debates, per Rule 45). The resolution also updates procedures for referring bills (Rule 52) and handling delegations/visitors (Rule 56). As a procedural rule change, it does not create new laws or affect the public.
