Committee advances three bills in executive session; due-pass recommendations recorded
Summary
In executive session the Senate Business, Financial Services and Trade Committee voted due-pass on SB 5016, SB 5108 and Senate Joint Memorial 8005; the record shows voice votes and subject-to-signature outcomes.
The Senate Business, Financial Services and Trade Committee moved three bills out of committee during an executive session recorded in the transcript.
Senate Bill 5016: Staff described SB 5016 as a measure relating to prearranged funeral services that would exclude certain funeral merchandise, transportation and protection agreements from prearranged funeral-service contract requirements and reduce the percentage of the contract purchase price that must be placed into trust. Committee staff said there were no amendments and no fiscal note was reported during the briefing. A committee member moved that the bill receive a due-pass recommendation and the committee recorded the motion as passing by voice vote; the transcript records the outcome as “bill passes subject to signature.” The transcript did not record a roll-call tally or identify the member who made the motion by name.
Senate Bill 5108: Committee staff described SB 5108 as revising financial-responsibility requirements for service-contract providers and protection-product guarantee providers and as specifying when a consumer may apply for reimbursement for payment or performance due. The briefing noted a fiscal impact exists for 5108. A motion to give SB 5108 a due-pass recommendation was moved and passed by voice vote; the transcript records the action as “pass subject to signature.” No roll-call tally or mover name is recorded in the transcript.
Senate Joint Memorial 8005: Committee staff said SJM 8005 would request that Congress reinstate the Glass–Steagall Act of 1933 (reestablish separation between commercial and investment banking). The committee moved the joint memorial and the motion carried by voice vote; the transcript records the memorial moving forward “subject to signature.” Committee members spoke in support during the executive-session discussion but a roll-call tally was not recorded in the transcript.
All three due-pass recommendations were presented in executive session and recorded as subject to members’ signatures within the committee’s 24-hour signature window. The transcript records voice outcomes only; it does not provide a roll-call vote tally or full list of individual member votes for the items advanced.
