Summary
The House Transportation Infrastructure Committee reported three bills with a recommendation after roll calls: House Bills 4301 and 4302 were reported with recommendation, and House Bill 4214 was reported as substitute H‑1 after the committee adopted the substitute.

The House Transportation Infrastructure Committee reported three bills with a recommendation during its meeting: House Bill 4301, House Bill 4302, and House Bill 4214 (as substitute H‑1).
House Bill 4301: Representative Brock moved to report House Bill 4301 with recommendation. During the roll call the clerk recorded members' votes; the committee chair declared the bill "reported with recommendation." The clerk's roll call produced a recorded tally of 13 yeas and 1 nay (one member, Cara, recorded a "no" during the roll call). The committee did not discuss the bill's substantive provisions on the record at the time of reporting.
House Bill 4302: A motion was made to report House Bill 4302 with recommendation; the clerk called the roll and the chair announced the bill "is reported with recommendation." The clerk's roll call produced a recorded tally of 14 yeas and 0 nays as announced.
House Bill 4214 (school bus bill): The committee first voted to adopt substitute H‑1 for House Bill 4214. Representative Brock moved to adopt the H‑1 substitute; the clerk called the roll and the chair announced the substitute was adopted with a roll call tally the clerk recorded as 13 yeas and 1 nay. Representative Bonak then moved to report House Bill 4214 with recommendation as substitute H‑1; the clerk called the roll and the chair announced the bill was "reported with recommendation as substitute H‑1" with a recorded tally of 13 yeas and 1 nay.
Why it matters: committee reporting with recommendation advances these bills to the next step in the legislative process and indicates sufficient committee support to move forward. The meeting record does not include the full text debate of each bill in every case; the clerk's roll calls and chair announcements constitute the formal record of committee action.
Ending: The committee proceeded to other business after completing the roll calls and reporting the bills.
