and Records, and whose duty it shall be to examine and
report upon all contracts made for printing stationery,
and purchases for the Public offices, and the Library, and all

SEC. 25. Neither House shall, without the consent of the

nor adjourn to any other place, than that in which the
House shall be sitting, without the concurrent vote of two-
thirds of the members present.
SEC. 26. The House of Delegates shall have the sole
power of impeachment in all cases; but a majority of all
the members elected must concur in the impeachment. All
impeachments shall be tried by the Senate, and when sit-

General Assembly and be altered, amended or rejected by
the other. No bill shall originate in either House during the
last twenty-eight calendar days of a regular session, unless
two-thirds of the members elected thereto shall so deter-
mine by yeas and nays, and in addition the two Houses by
joint and similar rule may further regulate the right to
introduce bills during this period; nor shall any bill become
a law until it be read on three different days of the session
in each House, unless two-thirds of the members elected to
the House where such bill is pending shall so determine by
yeas and nays, and no bill shall be read a third time until
it shall have been actually engrossed or printed for a third
reading.
SEC. 28. No bill shall become a Law unless it be passed

bers elected, and on its final passage, the yeas and nays be
recorded; nor shall any Resolution, requiring the action of
both Houses, be passed except in the same manner.

it enacted by the General Assembly of Maryland:" and all
Laws shall be passed by original bill; and every Law enacted
by the General Assembly shall embrace but one subject, and
that shall be described in its title; and no Law, nor section
of Law, shall be revived, or amended by reference to its title,
i Tims amended by Chapter 161, Acts of 1964, ratiffied November 3, 1964.
