Colorado House committee reports refer SB58, SB70; House bills 1305–1307 introduced
Summary
During a floor session, the Colorado House received committee recommendations referring Senate Bills 58 (as amended) and 70 to the committee of the whole, was notified of printing and delivery actions for enrolled measures, and learned that House Bills 1305–1307 were introduced and assigned to committees.
The Colorado House of Representatives received committee reports during its floor session that recommended referral of Senate Bill 58 (as amended) and Senate Bill 70 to the committee of the whole, and members heard introductions and committee assignments for three House bills.
Committee on Business Affairs and Labor reported favorably on Senate Bill 58 (as amended) and Senate Bill 70 and recommended both be referred to the committee of the whole. The Committee on Health and Human Services reported that “House bill 12 71” should be amended and, as amended, be referred to the Committee on Appropriations. The chief clerk said printing reports and the signing of bills, resolutions and memorials would be printed in the journal; the clerk also announced delivery of enrolled bills to the governor and a message to the Senate would be printed in the journal.
House Bill 1305, sponsored in the House by Rep. Espinosa and Rep. Bridal and carrying Senate sponsors including Sen. Ekman Katlin, was presented as a measure “concerning the extension of the repeal date of the reporting section of the Colorado Child Abuse Prevention Trust Fund Act.” The speaker said HB1305 was assigned to the Committee on State, Civic, Military and Veterans Affairs. House Bill 1306, sponsored by Rep. Luck and Rep. Espinosa with Sen. Ball and Sen. Rich as Senate sponsors, was described as “concerning alphabetizing the plumbing profession definitions” and was likewise assigned to the Committee on State, Civic, Military and Veterans Affairs. House Bill 1307, sponsored by Rep. Luck and Rep. Carter with Sen. Boll and Sen. Rich listed as Senate sponsors, was described as “concerning updating technical references in education law” and was assigned to the Committee on Education.
Near the close of the session, the majority leader moved, “I move that the House stand in adjournment until Friday, March 21 at 9 a.m.,” and the House adjourned until that date and time.
The floor announcements recorded committee referrals and routine floor housekeeping — printing of journal entries, signing of enrolled measures and transmittal of bills to the governor — but did not include recorded roll-call votes on the measures reported. No formal passage or final House action on the bills reported was recorded in the floor remarks excerpted here; the committee recommendations and committee assignments establish the next steps in each measure’s legislative process.
