Summary
The Montana House reconsidered a prior action and accepted appointments to the special select judicial standards nominating committee — Representative Seekins Crowe, Representative Regier and Representative Sullivan — by unanimous consent after a motion from Majority Leader Jay Fitzpatrick.
Majority Leader Jay Fitzpatrick moved that the House reconsider the prior day's action on appointments to the special select judicial standards nominating committee, saying the change was being made "at the request of the minority leader." The motion to reconsider was adopted by unanimous consent: "Without objection, it's ordered."
Fitzpatrick then moved that the House accept the special select judicial standards nominating committee appointments. He named Representative Seekins Crowe, Representative Regier and Representative Sullivan. The acceptance was also adopted by unanimous consent; the transcript records "Without objection. It's ordered." No roll-call vote was recorded on either motion.
The transcript does not record additional debate on the appointments or the reasons for the membership change beyond Fitzpatrick's statement that the change was requested by the minority leader. The appointments were entered on the House record by unanimous consent during the floor session.
