Senate Education Committee forwards two gubernatorial education appointments to the Senate floor
Summary
The committee recommended Wallace Hedrick to the Idaho Public Charter School Commission and Sean Keogh to the Idaho State Board of Education, voting to send both nominations to the full Senate with a "do pass" recommendation.
The Senate Education Committee voted to forward two gubernatorial appointments to the full Senate with recommendations for confirmation.
The committee moved that Wallace Hedrick be sent to the Idaho Public Charter School Commission and that Sean Keogh be sent to the Idaho State Board of Education, with both nominations receiving a "do pass" recommendation from committee members. The committee chair called for voice votes on each nomination; members answered "aye," and the chair announced the motions carried.
The appointments were handled as committee business with little discussion recorded in the transcript. For Hedrick, a motion to recommend confirmation was made and seconded; Senator Zito seconded the motion. For Keogh, Senator Woodward moved the recommendation and Senator Nichols seconded it. No committee members recorded formal opposition on the transcript to either recommendation.
Both items will appear on the Senate floor for confirmation votes. The committee did not take extended testimony or enter into detailed debate on the nominees during this meeting.
Ending: The committee adjourned after completing its business and said it will reconvene the following day.
