Senate withdraws several bills from committees and reassigns one to Labor
Summary
On the floor, senators moved to withdraw multiple Senate files from committee and either return them to authors or reassign them to other committees; committee reports printed in the agenda were adopted.
The Minnesota Senate on the floor handled several procedural motions to withdraw or reassign bills and adopted printed committee reports.
Senator Anderson moved to withdraw Senate File 253 from the Committee on Capital Investment and return it to its author; the motion prevailed. Senator Fote moved to withdraw Senate File 1,140 from the Committee on Capital Investment and return it to its author; the motion was presented and the motion prevailed according to the floor record.
Senator Bowden moved to withdraw Senate File 1,346 from the Committee on Environment, Climate and Legacy and re-refer it to the Committee on Labor; the motion prevailed on a voice vote.
Senate clerical remarks on first reading and referral show Senate File 1,572 was referred to the Committee on Health and Human Services, and Senate File 1,704 was referred to the Committee on Agriculture. Earlier in the session the Senate moved to adopt the committee reports printed in the agenda; the chair reported the motion prevailed.
These floor actions are procedural: withdrawing bills from a committee returns them to the author or places them in a different committee for further consideration. The Senate continued additional business after these motions and adjourned until the date announced on the floor.
