During its March 17 session, the Senate Committee on Rules considered a series of short work-session items and moved multiple ceremonial resolutions to the Senate floor with “be adopted” recommendations. Committee staff summarized each measure as having no fiscal or revenue impact.
Votes and committee actions listed in the session record include:
- SCR 25 (Ruth McKeown): Committee motion to move to the floor with a “be adopted” recommendation; roll call recorded as “motion passes.”
- HCR 9 (Dennis Michael Richardson): Committee motion to move to the floor with a “be adopted” recommendation; roll call recorded as “motion passes.”
- HCR 10 (Roger Martin): Committee motion to move to the floor with a “be adopted” recommendation; roll call recorded as “motion passes.”
- SCR 24 (Brian Edward Flowers): Committee motion to move to the floor with a “be adopted” recommendation; roll call recorded as “motion passes.”
- HCR 12 (designating 02/11/2026 as Oregon weekday): Committee motion to move to the floor with a “be adopted” recommendation; roll call recorded as “motion passes.”
- SCR 17 (Colonel Richard Kidd): Committee moved the memorial resolution to the floor with a “be adopted” recommendation; the measure received supporting testimony in a public hearing earlier in the session.
Each of the above measures was introduced in the committee’s work session and advanced without recorded fiscal impact. For most items the transcript records a short roll-call sequence with members answering “Aye” and a final chair vote recorded as “Motion passes” or “Chair votes aye.” The committee’s transcript excerpt does not list complete numeric tallies for each roll call in the provided record; the committee’s official journal will contain the certified roll-call tallies.
Committee staff will place the measures on the Senate floor calendar for consideration. Because these are ceremonial resolutions and recognitions, none creates binding policy or appropriates funds.
