Committee approves subcommittee provisos, gives staff authority to make technical changes
Summary
A Senate committee accepted the subcommittee finance HHS chairman's provisos and unanimously authorized staff to make technical edits, both by voice vote.
A Senate committee voted to accept the finance subcommittee HHS chairman's provisos and separately gave staff authority to make technical changes to the proviso language.
The first motion — to accept and forward the subcommittee chairman's provisos in a favorable report to the finance committee — was moved by Senator Lawrence (first name not specified in the transcript) and seconded by another senator. The chair called for a voice vote; members answered “aye,” and the motion carried.
Senator Lawrence then moved that staff be authorized to make technical edits to conform proviso language to actions taken by the subcommittee; the motion was seconded and passed by voice vote.
Both votes were completed as voice votes with no roll-call tallies recorded in the transcript. The committee chair announced the outcomes: both measures passed and were ordered forwarded.
The votes occurred at the start of the meeting and were described on the record as formal committee actions; the transcript contains no recorded roll-call counts or named nay votes.
