A resolution providing for sufficient time for legislation to be read.
This resolution requires the U.S. Senate to wait at least one session day for every 20 pages of a bill or other measure (plus one additional day for any remaining pages under 20) before considering it. Senators can object to immediate consideration, and such objections can only be overridden by a three-fifths vote of Senators present. The rule aims to ensure Senators have sufficient time to review legislation thoroughly before voting. It applies directly to Senate procedures for all bills, resolutions, and other measures.
