Votes at a glance: House passes multiple bills on final passage and adopts committee amendments
Summary
On March 18 the House recorded final passage for a range of bills (third reading/concurrence calendar), approving measures on topics from childcare transport rules to election and tax procedures. Several roll calls recorded vote tallies in the transcript.
The House recorded final passage or adoption of committee reports on numerous bills during the March 18 floor session. Many measures were routine third‑reading passages with little on‑floor debate; the clerk called roll for final passage on a series of bills and several votes were recorded with tallies in the transcript.
Selected third‑reading final passages and recorded roll-call tallies in the transcript:
- House Bill 497 (Residential Childcare Transportation Regulation/Preventing Abduction in Youth Transport Act of 2025): final passage, recorded as "138 votes in the affirmative." (Transcript roll call.)
- House Bill 966 (Courts: Artificial Intelligence Evidence Clinic Pilot Program): final passage, recorded as "129 votes in the affirmative." (Transcript roll call.)
- House Bill 1519 (Prior Authorizations for State Debt): final passage, recorded as "138 votes in the affirmative." (Transcript roll call.)
- Senate Bill 183 (State Department of Assessments and Taxation notice of constant yield tax rate alteration): recorded roll-call tally in the transcript shows "128 votes in the affirmative."
- Senate Bill 667 (Gaming: Slot Machine Games / Skills-based amusement devices): recorded as "138 votes in the affirmative." (Transcript roll call.)
- Senate Bill 1000 (Gaming: sports wagering relocation request): recorded as "140 votes in the affirmative." (Transcript roll call.)
- House concurrence and concurrence calendar items: several bills where the House concurred in Senate amendments were recorded with tallies, including House Bill 848 (Health insurance adverse decision notices) recorded as "139 votes in the affirmative," and House Bill 869 (preserve telehealth access) recorded as "140 votes in the affirmative." The transcript records the clerk's roll calls and announced tallies for those measures.
Where the transcript excerpt did not include a numeric roll-call tally, the journal entry recorded the measure as passed or the committee report as adopted; those are noted in the House journal but not numerically recorded in the excerpted audio text.
Ending: The House concluded the desk work portion of the session and announced an afternoon return; several bills were advanced or finally passed with the tallies above recorded in the transcript.
