Committee reconsiders and re‑reports Senate Bill 1536; roll call shows unanimous favorable recommendation
Summary
The Committee on Jurisprudence formally reconsidered and re‑reported Senate Bill 1536 with adoption of a committee substitute, and the clerk recorded three affirmative votes and no negatives.
During the hearing the committee moved to reconsider its March 20 vote on Senate Bill 1536 to correct paperwork and to re-run a formal committee vote. The committee adopted the previously explained committee substitute, then voted to report Senate Bill 1536 favorably to the full Senate.
Senator Johnson moved to reconsider the prior vote and presented the committee substitute. After roll call the clerk recorded the following affirmative votes: Senator Creighton (aye), Senator Johnson (aye) and Senator Gibbs (aye). The clerk announced “there being 3 ayes and no nays,” and the substitute was adopted and the committee voted to report the bill favorably and recommended certification for the local and uncontested calendars. The transcript records no nays. The committee then proceeded to the next items on the agenda.
No additional substance of SB 1536 was discussed on the record during the hearing; witnesses and senators indicated the substitute had been previously explained at the March 20 hearing.
