Summary
The Minnesota House of Representatives on April 29, 2025 received messages from the Senate reporting passage of two bills and referred them to Ways and Means.
The Minnesota House of Representatives on April 29, 2025 received messages from the Senate reporting passage of two bills and conducted routine floor business, including second reading of one house file and first reading of several others.
"Message from the Senate, Madam Speaker, I hereby announce the passage by the Senate, the following Senate file…Senate file number 1832, an act relating to state government," the secretary of the Senate reported, and the House clerk read that Senate File 1832 was referred to the committee on Ways and Means. The clerk also read that Senate File 2077, "an act relating to state government, appropriating money for environment and natural resources," was referred to Ways and Means. The message was recorded as transmitted by Thomas S. Bodern, Secretary of the Senate, in the House journal.
The clerk announced the House had given a second reading to House File 2433. The chief clerk also reported the introduction and first reading of House files 3271 through 3278. The transcript records that committee reports were adopted after the clerk said, "Hearing no objections, the reports are adopted." No roll-call tallies for those adoptions were recorded in the transcript.
Later in the session a member requested a recess to the call of the speaker; the request was put by voice vote and the presiding officer recessed the House. The transcript records the motion as called by "Representative Niska" and that the motion prevailed by voice vote; no roll-call tally was recorded.
There was no debate on the Senate messages in the portion of the transcript provided. The transcript does not include committee hearings or floor debate on the substance of SF 1832 or SF 2077; it only records transmission to the House and referral to Ways and Means.
