Committee sends Dr. Timothy Rerich nomination for State Board of Health and Welfare to Senate floor after procedural pause
Summary
The committee initially allowed a motion to advance Dr. Timothy Rerich's reappointment to fail for lack of a second, then corrected procedure and moved the appointment to the Senate floor with a recommendation for confirmation.
The Senate Health and Welfare Committee considered the gubernatorial reappointment of Dr. Timothy Rerich to the State Board of Health and Welfare and, after an initial procedural lapse, moved the nomination to the full Senate with a recommendation for confirmation.
Senator Jim Blaylock made a motion to send Dr. Rerich's reappointment to the Senate floor with a recommendation that he be confirmed. The motion initially died for lack of a second. Committee members later revisited the item, Senator Melissa Wintrow provided a second, and the committee then voted by voice to send the nomination to the floor with a recommendation for confirmation.
No testimony from Dr. Rerich was recorded in the committee transcript during this meeting. The committee did not record a roll-call tally; the transcript records a voice "aye" in favor of advancing the nomination.
