The Massachusetts House adopted orders extending until March 18, 2026, the time within which the Committee on Consumer Protection and Professional Licensure is authorized to report on current House documents.
The orders were filed by Representative Chan of Quincy and reported out by the Committee on Rules. Members voted to suspend the rules before taking the voice votes to adopt each order; the clerk announced that “the ayes have it.”
The extensions apply to two separate house orders (cited in committee reports as House Nos. 4446 and 4447) that were each presented by the Committee on Rules as "ought to be adopted." The transcript records motions to suspend the rules immediately before each adoption, but no floor debate or roll-call votes were recorded in the provided excerpt.
No additional directions to staff or committees were recorded in the transcript excerpt; the actions recorded are the formal suspensions of the rules and adoption of the orders extending committee reporting time to March 18, 2026.
