Missouri House approves journal in roll-call vote, 145-1
Summary
The Missouri House of Representatives approved a motion to adopt the House Journal by roll-call vote; the clerk recorded 145 yeas and 1 nay. The motion to adjourn until Feb. 10 was moved later in the session; the transcript does not record its outcome.
The Missouri House of Representatives approved a motion to adopt the House Journal in a roll-call vote; the clerk announced the tally as 145 yays and 1 nay.
The motion to approve the journal was moved by the gentleman from Greene County (Representative) and put to a roll-call vote. The clerk closed the board and announced the result: “With the yays being 145 and nays 1, the gentleman's motion is approved.”
Adopting the House Journal is a routine procedural step that ratifies the official record of recent floor proceedings. In the transcript the mover asked specifically for approval of the House Journal for “the sixteenth day, Tuesday, February fourth, 2025,” while the clerk later referenced the “seventeenth day, Wednesday, February fifth, 2025.” The record in the transcript does not reconcile that discrepancy.
Later in the session a motion was made to adjourn until 4 p.m. on Monday, Feb. 10; the transcript records the motion and the call for those in favor to signify by saying “aye,” but does not include the resulting vote or the chair’s announcement of the outcome.
The session also included the clerk’s first reading of two house bills (HB 1210 and HB 1211), as noted elsewhere in the record.
