'''Mason's Manual of Parliamentary Procedure''', commonly referred to as ''Mason's Manual''. This 700+ page book serves as the official parliamentary manual of most state legislative bodies in the United States. "''Adopted as the authority on questions of parliamentary law and procedure in California, it is to legislatures what [[Robert's Rules of Order]] is to club groups. Gleaned from court decisions and legislative precedents, salted by practical experience, it is...[used] by legislatures throughout the U.S. and its territories. Adopted by the parliament of India and Pakistan."''{{Verify credibility}} <ref> ''The California Legislature'' (1980 edition), by Joseph A. Beek, California State Senate, p. 251. </ref>
