Most measures were treated as identical to companion house or senate bills and were moved, seconded and reported with limited verbal debate.

Senate Joint Resolution 248 (identical to House Joint Resolution 2) was reported out on a vote of 11 to 8. Senate Joint Resolution 249 (identical to House Joint Resolution 9) was reported with a recorded tally reported in the transcript as \"13 2 5\"; the committee reported the item after members cast their votes as recorded. The transcript does not include additional subject-matter details for SJR 248 or SJR 249 beyond their identification as items identical to house joint resolutions.

Senate Bill 813 (identical to House Bill 1657), described in the transcript as relating to a state-level \"quiet period\" for the means of list maintenance, was reported on a vote of 12 to 8. Senate Bill 991 (identical to House Bill 1735) — which the transcript describes as reducing the number of days that registration records are closed before primary and general elections from 21 to 10, and from 13 to 10 for special elections — passed the committee on a vote of 19 to 1.

Senate Bill 1119 (identical to House Bill 1794), described in the transcript as making primary dates the same for presidential-year primaries, was reported on a vote of 15 to 5. The committee chair closed the agenda after these items and reminded members to monitor the calendar for subcommittee work next year.

The transcript records motions, seconds and roll-call tallies but does not include floor debate or sponsor statements for these items in committee. The clerk opened the roles for each recorded roll call.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Privileges And Elections Friday, Feb 7, 2025 8:50 AM - 9:07 AM","oneSentenceSummary","The House Committee on Privileges and Elections reported multiple election-related measures — including rules on voter-list maintenance, voter-registration closure windows, and primary-date alignment — and recorded roll-call votes for each item.","taxTitle","2025 Legislature VA, Virginia","taxId",77687,"location","Virginia","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":77,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":78,"_41":79,"_43":80,"_45":81,"_47":82,"_49":83,"_51":84,"_53":85,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":86,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":87,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6346175,"House committee approves amendment declaring infants born alive after abortion as legal persons",186,611000,797000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2247289-df7de57a17d61932ea8dc9dca8bdbe34&start=611&end=797","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2247289-df7de57a17d61932ea8dc9dca8bdbe34/thumbnail_611000.jpg","/articles/6346175/Virginia/House-committee-approves-amendment-declaring-infants-born-alive-after-abortion-as-legal-persons","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6346175-34af692b2424bfe8b5308871f32cbacb/orig.mp4?Expires=1770658931&Signature=TdJgF3HxvV9~Oq6PlyRclKwGBu-imNznroplHRNOyK4YJ8yu0-eifZLRBVMb2WgdxzX5UYfhn3MAuIJC5reqHXkVgAJYRxe5y3hENeoRRPC~QlMNtKzhm3Z0fS7szjD7o5V5BMX~CWssq7DCpQ1elFG4iWWNXWRTo0O772kCGv7IiPXVgPhTdAtSkMxnOQCLJIQGPtF4beh1CNp3aFBDrEr5RhkfpQ2i190fuqF1zv6eVAgpBh32YEnypNPPIenJyRedEr0qdr8lyp4qt8kHbx68MebrY5zkckedWHaWN09mExqm49Y0kuYTDU8yg6EoSK2MDb54fwvGA4H8fDVloA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The House Committee on Privileges and Elections voted 10 to 9 to pass an amendment to Senate Joint Resolution 247, which is identical to House Joint Resolution 1, that would state that an infant born alive following an abortion \"shall be considered a legal person for all purposes under the law of this commonwealth and entitled to the full protection of such laws.\" The clerk read the amendment into the record before the committee voted.

The amendment, read aloud by the committee clerk, states in part: \"In the event of a live birth of an infant including when an abortion procedure results in the live birth of an infant such infants shall be considered a legal person for all purposes under the law of this commonwealth and entitled to the full protection of such laws.\" The amendment also says such an infant \"shall be provided the same level of care and treatment as any infant or person seeking care and treatment in a medical facility.\" The text was entered as the engrossed bill's insertion after line 35.

Committee action was procedural: after the amendment was read, a motion to \"pass by the amendment\" was made, seconded, and the committee recorded the roll; the motion to pass by the amendment carried on a 10 to 9 vote, and the committee then reported the joint resolution by the same 10-to-9 vote. No extended debate or additional floor amendments are recorded in the transcript.

Because the item is a joint resolution proposing a constitutional amendment, further steps would be required beyond this committee report before any change to the state constitution (not specified in the committee record). The committee chair closed the item after the vote and moved on to other agenda items.","The House Committee on Privileges and Elections voted 10 to 9 to pass an amendment to Senate Joint Resolution 247 (identical to House Joint Resolution 1) that would insert language declaring that any infant born alive following an abortion is a legal person under state law.","actionData","errors"]
