Senate gives advice and consent to list of gubernatorial appointments
Summary
The Missouri Senate adopted a committee report on gubernatorial appointments and voted to give its advice and consent to the nominees during the April 9 session; the adoption was recorded by voice and the committee report was sent forward and adopted.
The Missouri Senate on April 9 adopted a report from the Committee on Gubernatorial Appointments and gave its advice and consent to a slate of gubernatorial nominees.
Senator from Shelby, reporting the committee's list, asked for waiver of reading and unanimous consent to move the report in one motion. The body agreed and the senator moved that the committee report be adopted and the Senate give its advice and consent to the appointments.
The motion carried after no senator requested to be heard; the journal records that the committee report was adopted and the Senate gave its advice and consent. The floor transcript does not include the names of the individuals in the appointments list in the excerpted floor remarks; the report had been distributed to senators prior to the motion and the reading was waived on the floor.
The transcript shows the procedural steps: report forwarded by the committee, unanimous-consent request to vote on the reports in one motion, a motion to adopt, and a recorded voice indication that "the ayes do have it." The body then moved on to subsequent business.
