The House Rules Committee advanced a second package of legislation that would allow a current member of AFSCUF to have a voting seat on the board of governors and would require the establishment of a data inventory. The committee reported the measures to the House on a party-line vote of 18-15.
Chair moved to report House Bill 938, Printer's No. 1004, which the committee described as allowing a current member of AFSCUF to hold a voting seat on the board of governors. The package also included House Bill 1573, Printer's No. 1861, which requires the establishment of a data inventory. According to the committee record, Republicans opposed the package while Democrats voted to advance it.
The transcript records a partisan split: a Republican member stated Republicans would oppose the second package, and the secretary recorded that Democrats voted in favor and Republicans against. The committee vote to advance the measures was recorded as 18 in favor and 15 opposed. The record does not show individual roll-call votes by name in the transcript extract provided, nor does it show amendments or floor debate on the bills' text.
