RECEDE

recede,vb. (Of a house in a bicameral legislature) to withdraw from an amendment in which

the other house has not concurred. See CONCUR(3).

amendments from which the house has receded, since both houses have then agreed to the bill in

its form prior to amendment.” National Conference of State Legislatures, Mason’s Manual of
