Votes at a glance: Arizona Senate committee recommendations and third-reading outcomes from Feb. 12, 2025 session
Summary
The Senate took committee reports and a string of third-reading votes during the Feb. 12 session. Multiple bills were recommended by the Committee of the Whole; the transcript records final passage tallies for a series of bills and the constitutional referral SCR 1,001.
The Arizona Senate on Feb. 12 recorded committee recommendations and completed third-reading votes on a set of bills. The Committee of the Whole reported a slate of bills with committee recommendations; the Senate later recorded third-reading votes on multiple measures during the same floor session.
Key committee recommendations (Committee of the Whole report adopted by the chamber): - SB10-11: retained on calendar (no final action recorded in the transcript excerpt). - SB10-14: due pass (firearms/muffling device repeal language noted in committee report). - SB10-22: passed (committee report indicated do pass; third-reading vote recorded below). - SB10-24: do pass (relating to state agency payments/cryptocurrencies; see separate coverage). - SB10-25: do pass (public moneys investment: virtual currency; see separate coverage). - SB10-26: do pass as amended (virtual-currency property tax exemption; amended in finance committee). - SB10-27: retained on calendar. - SB10-39: do pass as amended (homeowners associations meeting/recording language; committee and floor amendments adopted).
Third-reading votes recorded in the transcript (tallies as recorded): - SB10-21 (classification of students for tuition purposes): Passed, 28 ayes, 0 nays, 2 not voting. - SB10-22 (small claims division): Passed, 28 ayes, 0 nays, 2 not voting. - SB10-33 (authority to seize animals): Passed, 19 ayes, 9 nays, (not voting count referenced in transcript). - SB10-40 (recall-related statutes): Passed, 28 ayes, 0 nays, 2 not voting. - SB10-58 (public safety personnel retirement): Passed, 22 ayes, 6 nays, 2 not voting. - SB10-74 (railroad grade crossings): Passed, 24 ayes, 4 nays, 2 not voting. - SB10-76 (newborn screening program): Passed, 25 ayes, 3 nays, (2 not voting recorded elsewhere). - SB10-79 (appropriations to ACJC, DES, DPS): Passed, 27 ayes, 1 nay, 2 not voting. - SB10-82 (constables): Passed, 26 ayes, 2 nays, 2 not voting. - SB11-04 (victims' rights-related statutes): Passed, 28 ayes, 0 nays, 2 not voting. - SB11-07 (motorcycle-related statute change): Passed, 25 ayes, 3 nays, 2 not voting. - SCR 1,001 (constitutional referral: property-tax exemption, virtual currency): Passed, 18 ayes, 10 nays, 2 not voting (will be transmitted to the House for further action and, if completed, placed on the ballot).
What the votes mean: Several bills were advanced by committee and by floor action during the session. Some bills that received committee "do pass" recommendations in the Committee of the Whole report do not have third-reading tallies recorded in the transcript excerpt provided; those items remain subject to subsequent floor scheduling. The constitutional referral SCR 1,001 was approved by the Senate and will proceed through the ballot-placement process.
Ending: The journal and clerk entries reflect the committee report and the recorded third-reading tallies listed above; the Senate adjourned to reconvene on Feb. 13, 2025.
