on a motion to reconsider cannot be reconsidered. A motion
to reconsider a vote on an undebatable question is in order
when another has the floor, but cannot be then considered. It
tabes precedence of all other motions except to adjourn or to
go into Executive Session. The effect of the motion to recon-
sider is to suspend the original proposition; but, should the
Senate finally adjourn with this motion pending upon any bill
or other measure, it leaves the original proposition operative.
A motion to reconsider having once been put and decided, it is
not in order to repeat the motion unless the original proposi-
tion has been amended since the first motion. When a motion
to reconsider prevails, the question immediately recurs upon
the question reconsidered. A vote on a vetoed bill, and a vote
on a motion to suspend the rules, cannot be reconsidered.

MOTION TO RECONSIDER AND LAY ON TABLE.

This motion is usually made after the final vote determining
any measure, though it may be made after each vote at any
stage of the measure. The motion is put in the following
form: ''That the vote last taken be reconsidered, and that the
motion to reconsider be laid on the table." This motion hav-
ing been decided in the affirmative, no reconsideration can take
place. The motion is not debatable and cannot be amended.
