Rules committee sets May 15 for consideration of House File 2464, adopts calendar

The Committee on Rules and Legislative Administration voted to designate Thursday, May 15, for consideration of House File 2464, the health policy bill, and to establish a pre‑filing requirement for amendments, the chair of the committee said during a brief meeting that also approved minutes from May 12.

The committee first approved the minutes from its Monday, May 12, meeting after Representative Howard moved their adoption and members answered “Aye” on a voice vote. The motion to adopt the calendar was then made under the committee’s rules and legislative administration procedures. "I move the adoption of the calendar for the day pursuant to rules 1.21 and 3.33," the chair said, and members responded by voice that the calendar was adopted.

The action designates May 15 as the day when House File 2464 will be placed on the calendar for consideration. The committee’s motion also established a pre‑filing requirement for amendments to bills on that calendar; the chair cited rules 1.21 and 3.33 when making the motion. The meeting record shows the decisions were made by voice vote; no roll‑call tallies were announced.

The meeting was brief and procedural: approval of minutes and the adoption of a calendar date and amendment filing procedure were the only substantive items recorded. No debate or dissent on the calendar or the pre‑filing requirement is shown in the transcript.
