House enacts sick-leave bank for Worcester County deputy
Summary
The House approved a bill creating a sick-leave bank for Steven Forget, an employee of the Worcester County Sheriff’s Office, including adoption of the bill's emergency preamble and final enactment.
The House approved a bill establishing a sick-leave bank for Steven Forget, an employee of the Worcester County Sheriff’s Office, and enacted the measure after adopting its emergency preamble.
The measure, listed in the record as House No. 4103, was read for final passage and required a separate vote under the constitution. The presiding officer ordered members voting in favor to rise; division counts recorded one affirmative vote in the first division, one in the second division and none in the third and fourth divisions. The clerk announced the emergency preamble was adopted. The House then voted on final passage; the presiding officer declared, “The ayes have it,” and the bill was reported enacted.
The action on House No. 4103 was presented during the House’s final business for the day and treated as an enactment on the record. The transcript records the separate constitutional vote and the subsequent final passage, but does not identify a mover, seconder or individual roll-call names tied to the divisions beyond the division tallies.
The House also set its next informal session to meet Thursday at 11:00 a.m. The clerk read the adjournment order before the House recessed.
