Committee roll call: bills cleared out of committee on April meeting
Summary
Several bills were advanced out of committee during the meeting; recorded tallies are included where the transcript records them. Some items were advanced with unanimous support, others with recorded nay votes; several motions referenced pending amendments or omitted implementing details.
The committee considered and advanced multiple bills during the meeting. The transcript records the following actions and vote tallies where available.
Senate Bill 997 — Advance (bar contracts with entities from adversarial countries): Clerk announced 6 aye, 2 nay; chair declared bill passed out of committee. Sponsor said a clarifying amendment was expected and would be circulated to members.
Senate Bill 333 — Advance (amend definition of "area of operation" in Oklahoma Housing Authority Act to allow consultation across jurisdictions with local consent): Clerk announced 5 aye, 3 nay; chair declared bill passed out of committee. Sponsor said the authority would consult on construction or rehabilitation projects but the inviting jurisdiction would retain ownership and decision-making.
Senate Bill 450 — Advance (repealer removing an obsolete military review committee): Clerk announced 8 aye, 0 nay; chair declared bill passed out of committee. Sponsor described the measure as a simple repealer for a committee that had not met since 2011.
Senate Bill 1091 — Advance (companion bill concerning dual office-holders; companion to a previously introduced bill): Clerk announced 8 aye, 0 nay; chair declared bill passed out of committee.
Senate Bill 676 — Advance (multiple repealer removing obsolete statutory commissions and references): The sponsor listed the specific commissions and councils to be repealed. The transcript records a voice vote and an affirmative result but does not record a detailed roll-call tally for the committee in the provided text.
Other procedural notes: multiple bills were described as "do pass" or "do pass and a second" on the record. Several sponsors and questioners emphasized that implementing details (amendments, interlocal agreements, or funding sources) were not yet in the record and would require follow-up.
Where the transcript lists a vote tally, this article records the clerk's announced tally; where the transcript does not specify individual names for each vote, tallies are reported as announced by the clerk or chair.
