The Committee on Veteran Affairs voted to report House Bill 56-46 to the full Senate with a recommendation for passage during its meeting, after adopting a motion to withdraw the bill's committee substitute.

Senator Hall moved to withdraw the committee substitute for House Bill 56-46; the chair called for objections and, when none were raised, the motion was adopted, according to the meeting transcript. Senator Hall then moved that House Bill 56-46 be reported back to the full Senate "with recommendation that pass be printed." Clerk Coloro conducted the roll call and the chair announced seven ayes and no nays.

The roll-call sequence in the recorded excerpt shows Committee member Hancock, Committee member Eckhart, Committee member Gutierrez, Committee member Hegenbu, Senator Hall and Committee member Menendez recorded as voting "aye." The transcript indicates a total of seven ayes and no nays; one affirmative vote in the announcement was not captured verbatim in the excerpt.

The meeting began with a quorum present; the clerk and chair presided over the procedural votes. There was no extended debate on the bill recorded in the provided excerpt, and no amendments to the bill's underlying language are recorded. After the votes, the chair concluded that there would be no further business and the committee stood adjourned.

Because the transcript excerpt does not include the bill text or committee materials, this article does not describe the substantive provisions of House Bill 56-46. The formal actions recorded in the meeting are limited to the withdrawal of the committee substitute and the committee's vote to report the bill to the full Senate with a recommendation for passage.
