amendment to an amendment

However, an amendment to an amendment of an amendment is often not allowed.

Amendments to the bill are termed "first degree," while amendments to an amendment are "second degree."

Since it is not possible to amend an amendment to an amendment, a member desiring to prevent amendments to his proposed language can do so by including it in a secondary amendment.
