The Massachusetts House of Representatives on Friday passed House 4182 to establish a sick-leave bank for an employee of the Massachusetts Department of Transportation.

The emergency preamble to the bill was adopted first by division vote; the clerk recorded affirmative counts described as first division 0, second division 3, third division 1 and fourth division 1, and the presiding officer said "5 members have been voted in the affirmative, none in the negative. The emergency preamble is adopted." After a brief recess, the House took final passage. The presiding officer called for the question, members responded "aye," and the presiding officer said, "The bill is passed to be enacted." The transcript does not record a roll-call tally for final passage.

Under the constitution — as noted during the session — a separate vote is required for the emergency preamble before final enactment can proceed. There was no recorded debate on the measure in the provided transcript and no amendments were described. The bill was presented for final passage without further discussion and passed on a voice vote.

The bill was identified in the transcript as "House 4182" and described as "an act establishing a sick leave bank for Jato Cartolin, an employee of the Massachusetts Department of Transportation" (the transcript also uses the spelling "Jato Carlin"). The House record as provided does not include additional details about the bank's terms, membership rules, or effective dates.

The House recessed briefly after the emergency preamble was adopted; no subsequent committee referrals or implementation instructions were recorded in the provided excerpt.

The clerk and presiding officer handled the procedural votes; no other motions, debates, or amendments are recorded in the excerpt. The transcript does not specify whether enactment required or will require further action by the Senate or the governor.
