Committee advances bill creating resilience matching fund to next stage
Summary
Senate Bill 828, which would establish a resilience matching fund, passed out of the Senate Energy and Environment Committee with a due pass recommendation and referral to the Joint Committee on Ways and Means; the committee recorded a majority of ayes and no further debate occurred during the work session.
The Senate Committee on Energy and Environment on Feb. 17 voted to advance Senate Bill 828 to the Senate floor with a due pass recommendation and a referral to the Joint Committee on Ways and Means. The bill would establish a resilience matching fund consisting of money appropriated by the Legislative Assembly or transferred from other sources.
Senator Brock Smith moved the measure to the floor. The committee took a roll call and the motion passed. The roll record shows recorded support from Senator Goldman, Senator Pham, Vice Chair Brock Smith and Chair Solman; Senator Robinson recorded a "no." Committee staff noted a fiscal statement exists for the measure and that a prior referral to Ways and Means had occurred.
No amendments or substantive floor debate were recorded during the work session, and the chair closed the session after the vote. The committee did not specify appropriation levels in the work session; the bill's fiscal statement was on file and the measure will be considered by Ways and Means for funding decisions.
