Committee executive action: summary of bills moved, amended, passed and tabled
Summary
During executive action the House Business and Labor Committee advanced several bills to the floor (some with amendments) and tabled one measure for further work. The committee recorded roll calls for some bills; others passed by voice vote. This roundup lists each bill acted on and the outcome announced in committee.
The House Business and Labor Committee took executive action on multiple bills. Below is a concise record of motions and outcomes as announced in committee.
House Bill 336 — Apprenticeships: The committee heard discussion and considered an amendment (to exclude massage therapy from apprenticeship provisions). The amendment failed on roll call and the bill was approved by committee and referred to the floor. (The committee chair announced: “House Bill 336 is passed. Business and labor will move to the floor.”)
House Bill 454 — Physical therapy: Committee adopted an amendment making the bill effective on passage and approval (amendment passed by voice vote). The committee then voted to pass HB 454 as amended; the bill will move to the floor.
House Bill 456 — Child care subsidy eligibility: The committee passed HB 456, which would make child‑care workers categorically eligible for the Best Beginnings subsidy for their own children while they continue working in child care. The chair announced the roll‑call result as passing “with 13, 4, and 7 against” (recorded in the transcript as announced by the clerk).
House Bill 464 — Transfer‑on‑death deeds: The committee approved the bill by voice vote and will move it to the floor (no roll‑call tally provided in the transcript).
House Bill 470 — Trigger lead regulation / related resolution: After committee discussion, members substituted a motion to table HB 470; the substitute motion to table passed (the chair instructed staff to place HB 470 on the table for further work).
House Bill 485 — Residential home contractor contracts: The committee adopted an amendment clarifying change orders and prohibiting certain time‑and‑materials defaults; the bill passed the committee as amended (the chair announced a committee passage with a roll‑call count announced in the transcript as “18, 4 and 3 against” then corrected and finalized as passed).
House Bill 544 — Health utilization review (prior authorization changes): The committee approved the bill by voice vote and will move it to the floor.
No committee action (final passage on the floor) is recorded in this transcript; these are committee referrals or tabling actions. Where the transcript records a specific roll call, that count is noted; for voice votes the committee announced passage without a numeric tally. Members who moved motions and amendments included Vice Chair Seekins Crowe, Representative Schomer, Representative Teal, Representative Carter, Representative Carlin, and Vice Chair Lynch; the chair was Buttrey.
Detailed actions and next steps are below.
