Oklahoma Senate adopts SCR 1 by voice vote with no recorded debate
Summary
During opening session the Oklahoma State Senate adopted Senate Concurrent Resolution 1 after the floor leader brought it directly to the calendar; the resolution27s text and sponsors were not specified in the floor remarks.
The Oklahoma State Senate adopted Senate Concurrent Resolution 1 during its opening session after the floor leader asked that the measure be brought directly to the calendar without objection.
The floor leader waived formal reading and moved for adoption of the resolution; the Senate took a voice vote with the presiding officer announcing that the ayes prevailed. No member requested debate and the resolution27s text and sponsor were not read aloud or identified in the public floor remarks recorded in the transcript.
The adoption occurred after a unanimous-consent request to place SCR 1 on the calendar. The transcript records the floor leader saying, "I waive the reading of the resolution, and at the appropriate time, move for adoption of the resolution." The presiding officer then called for the voice vote and declared the resolution adopted.
The record does not contain the text of SCR 1, a bill number beyond the resolution label, or a roll-call vote tally. Because no sponsor or detailed description of the resolution appears on the floor record, the substance of SCR 1 is not specified in this account.
Formal actions on SCR 1 are limited to the floor motion to adopt and the Senate27s voice vote adopting the resolution.
