On the floor of the Montana House of Representatives, the clerk announced that House Bills 125 through 139 were introduced, read for the first time and referred to committee. The clerk said, "House bills 125 through 139 are introduced, read first time, and referred to committee. All are posted."

The announcement placed the bills into the legislative process; the transcript contains no floor debate or recorded votes on those bills during the session. The clerk did not specify the subject matter of any individual bill during the floor announcement.

Introductions by the clerk are the usual first step in moving bills into committee review; committees scheduled to consider bills meet in subsequent committee sessions announced later in the floor proceedings.
