3.07 THE PREVIOUS QUESTION. The motion calling for the previous question must be seconded by 15 members. If the motion for the previous question is ordered by a majority of members present, it shall have the effect of cutting off all debate and bringing the House to direct vote upon the question or questions.
The previous question may be moved and ordered upon a single motion, a series of motions allowable under the Rules, or an amendment or amendments; or it may include all authorized motions or amendments, including a vote on final passage of a bill.
On a motion for the previous question, but prior to its being ordered, a call of the House shall be in order. After a majority has ordered the previous question, no call shall be in order prior to the decision on the main question.
When the previous question is decided in the negative, the main question remains under debate until disposed of by taking a vote either on the question or in some other manner.
All incidental questions of order arising after a motion is made for the previous question and prior to the vote on the main question shall be decided without debate.
