Clerk reads long list of House bills for referral; details largely not specified on floor
Summary
During the Feb. 6 session the Clerk of the Oregon House read a series of messages and a long list of House bills for referral and first reading. The bills were presented with limited floor description and no recorded debate or votes in the transcript.
The Clerk of the Oregon House of Representatives opened the voting system to verify a quorum and then read a series of messages and House bills slated for referral and first reading on Feb. 6. The reading covered dozens of bill numbers and brief descriptions; most received no floor debate during the session excerpt.
The Clerk read items identified in the transcript as House bills including, as spoken on the floor, House Bill 3451 (superintendent of public instruction); House Bill 3452 (ballot title); House Bill 3453 (commuter rail); House Bill 3454 (provision of adoption and information for students); House Bill 3455; House Bill 3456 (Internet safety policies); House Bill 3458 (student personal device policy); House Bill 3459; House Bill 3460; and House Bill 3465 (labeling/fire protection). The Clerk continued through a sequence of bills whose spoken descriptions were at times garbled or not fully specified in the transcript.
The Clerk also announced Senate messages and memorials and that mini reports had been distributed. The floor record in the provided transcript shows these items were presented for referral or first reading; the transcript does not record committee assignments, sponsor names beyond what the Clerk announced, or subsequent debate on the items.
Procedural motion: Representative Greg Smith moved to adjourn the House until 11 a.m. Thursday, Feb. 6, 2025; the motion was adopted “without objection” and the House adjourned.
Because the Clerk’s reading was a procedural step, no votes on the listed bills are recorded in the provided transcript excerpt. Where transcript wording was unclear, this article marks the description as not specified.
