House Resources Committee introduces three resolutions; motions pass by voice votes
Summary
During the meeting the committee introduced three legislative submittals (RSs): RS32078 (land bank timing), RS32114 (grizzly bear delisting resolution), and RS32146 (muzzleloader/sabbath hunting RS). Each introduction was moved and approved by voice vote.
The House Resources Committee introduced three requested simple resolutions (RS) near the end of the meeting. The committee recorded motions and voice votes to introduce each measure.
RS32078 (Representative Rubel) — land bank timing: Representative Rubel described RS32078 as a change to the Land Board’s handling of proceeds from endowment land sales, allowing flexibility to keep proceeds in the land bank beyond the current five‑year period while the Land Board evaluates potential land investments. Vice Chairman Shepherd moved to introduce RS32078; the committee approved the motion by voice vote (ayes recorded). Representative Rubel presented the measure and the motion carried.
RS32114 (Representative Gerald Raymond) — grizzly bear resolution: Representative Gerald Raymond introduced RS32114, a resolution urging federal delisting and return of grizzly bear management to the state and calling for review of the Endangered Species Act. Representative Shepherd moved to introduce RS32114; the motion passed by voice vote.
RS32146 (Representative Ron Mendy, sponsored) — Sabbath/muzzleloader hunt: Representative Mendy (represented at the committee by a designee) presented a pared‑down RS to legalize Sabbath hunting and create a muzzleloader‑only hunt. A committee member moved to introduce RS32146; the motion passed by voice vote.
Votes at a glance: all three introductions passed by voice votes; no recorded roll‑call tallies were provided in committee minutes or the transcript.
Ending: Committee chair adjourned the meeting after introducing the three RSs and noting the committee’s Friday introduction deadline.
