House Rules committee recommends mass motion measures are constitutional and in proper form
Summary
The Arizona House Committee on Rules voted 6-0, with one member absent, to recommend that the measures included in a mass motion are constitutional and in proper form after an opinion from the committee’s rules attorney.
At a committee meeting, the Arizona House Committee on Rules voted 6-0, with one member absent, to recommend that the measures included in a mass motion are constitutional and in proper form.
Tim Fleming, of the Rules Attorney Office, told the committee, “We’ve reviewed each of those measures that’s the subject of the mass motion. It’s our opinion that they’re each constitutional and in proper form, and I’m happy to answer any questions.”
The secretary called the roll on the motion after Fleming’s statement. Representatives Carbone, Contreras, Mattis, Montenegro and Willoughby were recorded as voting “Aye,” and Chairman Hendricks announced the final tally as six ayes, zero nays and one absent. The committee’s recorded action was to recommend the measures in the mass motion are constitutional and in proper form.
The transcript does not specify the individual measures included in the mass motion, who moved or seconded the motion, or which member was absent. No amendments or substantive debate on individual measures are recorded in the transcript. The meeting then was adjourned.
