Committee expunges prior concurrence and concurs on two amendments to Bill 16 85
Summary
A legislative committee voted to expunge a prior concurrence on a Senate amendment to HB 16 85 and to concur on two amendments to the measure, one described as correcting an "engrossing error" and the other addressing local sales tax.
A legislative committee voted to expunge its earlier concurrence on a Senate amendment to HB 16 85 and to concur on two amendments to the measure during a brief meeting.
The action began when the committee chair asked members to rescind a prior concurrence, saying, "We're gonna have to expunge the vote by which we concurred on senate amendment number 2 on HB 16 85 without objection. Do I have that motion?" Representative Kent Underwood, state representative, District 16, responded, "So moved." The chair called a voice vote; members answered "Aye," and the chair declared the motion carried. There was no roll-call tally recorded on the transcript.
The committee then took up "amendment number 1 to senate bill 16 85," which the chair identified as correcting an ``engrossing error.'' Representative Kent Underwood explained the change, saying, "This is the 1 that I was explaining earlier this morning about just a simple engrossing error that we had to correct on the on the senate end." The committee moved to pass the amendment by voice vote and the chair declared members concurred on amendment 1.
Without further debate the committee also concurred on amendment number 2. Representative Underwood described that amendment as "the same 1 that we passed earlier this morning, regarding the the local sales tax." The committee moved to pass the amendment, took a voice vote and the chair announced that members had concurred on both amendment 1 and amendment 2.
The meeting concluded shortly after the votes; the transcript records the chair adjourning the session. The transcript does not include roll-call vote tallies or recorded dissent; all actions were taken by voice vote as recorded.
