Committee recommends passage of reviser's bill fixing technical errors in state law
Summary
The Senate Judiciary and Public Safety Committee voted to recommend Senate File 3289, the annual reviser's bill that makes technical and noncontroversial corrections across Minnesota statutes, sending it to the Senate floor.
The Minnesota Senate Judiciary and Public Safety Committee on April 7 recommended Senate File 3289, the reviser's bill, to pass and be referred to the full Senate.
Senator David Limmer introduced the measure, describing it as the annual, noncontroversial package that corrects cross‑references, grammatical errors, and other technical drafting issues across state law. Deputy Revisor Jeff Case told the committee the reviser's office carefully reviews changes to ensure they are technical and not controversial.
After brief discussion and no substantive questions, Senator Limmer moved that Senate File 3289 be recommended to pass and be referred to the Senate floor. The committee approved the motion by voice vote; the chair announced, “Motion prevails.” No recorded roll‑call tally was entered into the hearing record.
Senate File 3289 is more than 200 pages and, according to testimony, contains corrections to statutes across multiple subject areas. The committee recorded the recommendation and will send the bill to the Senate floor for further consideration.
