Senate adjourns after declaring lack of quorum; session rescheduled for April 15 at 10 a.m.
Summary
A presiding officer declared the Senate lacked a quorum and adjourned the session until Tuesday, April 15 at 10 a.m., citing Senate Rule 3.104 and Joint Rule 15. No votes or substantive business were recorded.
The presiding officer, the presiding officer of the Senate session as identified in the transcript, announced that the Senate lacked a quorum and adjourned the meeting until Tuesday, April 15 at 10 a.m.
The presiding officer cited "absence of a quorum pursuant to Senate Rule 3.104" and "Joint Rule 15," and said, "The senate will adjourn. Stand adjourned until Tuesday, April 15 at 10AM in the morning. The senate is now adjourned." No motions, votes, or other business were recorded in the transcript excerpt.
The adjournment means scheduled legislative business on this convening was postponed; the presiding officer gave the new date and time but did not specify a year or list any items to be carried over. Because the transcript contains only the short adjournment statement, there is no record in this excerpt of any debate, committee reports, or formal votes.
The action referenced Senate Rule 3.104 and Joint Rule 15 as the basis for adjourning for lack of a quorum. The transcript did not identify the presiding individual by name, and no other speakers or staff remarks are recorded in the provided excerpt.
