Senate approves prior journal, introduces two measures and adopts standing committee reports
Summary
The Senate convened, recorded 24 members present, approved the prior day’s journal, introduced Senate Concurrent Resolution No. 16 and Senate Resolution No. 12 for referral to committee, adopted standing committee reports Nos. 29–50 on a motion by Senator Wakai, and adjourned until 11:30 a.m. tomorrow.
The Senate convened and recorded 24 present, approved the journal of the preceding day, introduced two measures for referral, adopted standing committee reports Nos. 29–50 and adjourned until 11:30 a.m. tomorrow.
The actions were procedural housekeeping: the chamber’s presiding officer said the journal had been read and “approves the same,” then the clerk announced the introduction of Senate Concurrent Resolution No. 16 and Senate Resolution No. 12 for referral to committee.
Senator Wakai moved to adopt standing committee reports Nos. 29–50; Senator DeCorte seconded the motion. The chair asked if there was any discussion or objection; none was recorded and the chair said, “the motion is carried,” adopting the reports.
During announcements, Senator Kim rose for a point of personal privilege and Senator Fevella thanked a colleague from Kahuku, saying, “Just wanted to thank the senator from Kahuku for his eggs. Thank you.” The presiding officer directed all majority senators to report to the Majority Caucus Room immediately after session.
Senator Wakai moved that the Senate stand adjourned until 11:30 a.m. tomorrow; the motion was seconded and, with no objections, the Senate adjourned.
The day’s business consisted of routine procedural items and referrals; no substantive policy debate or recorded roll-call votes on measures were taken during this brief session.
