Question

After the sixtieth day, before a bill can be considered on the floor of the house (other than local and emergency bills), a four-fifths vote is required. Why?
a. because a two-thirds super majority is always required in the house
b. quorum requirements of the Texas Constitution
c. house rules about setting and cementing the agenda for bill consideration
d. None of these answers is correct.

Answer 1

Answer: B

Explanation:

Upon receiving a bill, the governor has 10 days in which to sign the bill, veto it, or allow it to become law without a signature. ... A two-thirds majority in each house is required to override the veto. If the governor neither vetoes nor signs the bill within 10 days, the bill becomes a law.

                                      this is not right

In the House, most bills go to the Rules committee before reaching the floor. The committee adopts rules that will govern the procedures under which the bill will be considered by the House. A "closed rule" sets strict time limits on debate and forbids the introduction of amendments.
