Amends Joint Rule 20 to require a fiscal note on any bill or concurrent resolution that increases or decreases state revenue, either directly or indirectly

Allows any member to request a fiscal note, and bills cannot be considered without one unless two-thirds of the house votes to dispense with the requirement

Fiscal notes must include a reliable estimate of the anticipated change in state revenues and be prepared by the Legislative Budget Office, Department of Finance and Administration, Department of Revenue, State Auditor, relevant state agency, or Legislative Reference Bureau within seven days of request

Exempts general appropriations bills and local and private bills from the fiscal note requirement

Replaces reference to "State Tax Commission" with "Department of Revenue"
