House reports passage of multiple measures to Senate; details entered in the record
Summary
The Senate clerk reported messages from the House that several House bills and two Senate bills were passed by the House and that a House concurrent resolution was signed. The clerk read multiple bill numbers and announced calendar housekeeping.
The Senate clerk reported that the House of Representatives transmitted notice that it had passed several measures and that the speaker had signed a concurrent resolution.
The clerk read into the Senate record: that the House has passed House Bill 2492; House Bill 2660; House Bill 2940; House Bill 3681; and other numbered measures, and that the House had transmitted that it had passed Senate Bills 849 and 1189. The clerk also announced that the speaker had signed House Concurrent Resolution 4. The clerk did not provide further detail on each bill at the time the message was read; several bills listed later in the record were described by short titles but were carried over to the next calendar day for consideration.
The clerk’s announcement is a formal floor communication from the House to the Senate noting outcomes in the other chamber; it does not itself record Senate votes or take action in the Senate. The Senate subsequently carried over third-reading consideration of the remaining House measures to the Monday calendar and proceeded with routine referrals and status reports.
Votes at a glance (as read into the Senate record): - House Bill 2492 — outcome: passed by the House; description in record: "relating to courts" (description read later in the record). - House Bill 2660 — outcome: passed by the House; description in record: "relating to trip permits" (details not specified in the message portion). - House Bill 2940 — outcome: passed by the House; description read later as relating to hemoglobin pathologies (effective date noted in the transcript as "scribe an effective date"). - House Bill 3681 — outcome: passed by the House; description in record: "related to energy facilities." - Senate Bill 849 — outcome: passed by the House (transmitted to the Senate record). - Senate Bill 1189 — outcome: passed by the House (transmitted to the Senate record). - House Concurrent Resolution 4 — outcome: signed by the House speaker and transmitted to the Senate.
Where the clerk or the record did not provide a substantive description of a bill at the moment of the report, this article marks the detail as not specified in the message and notes that full texts and committee referrals were entered in the journal and will appear on the Monday calendar.
