Gov. Kelly nominates Michael McCoy to be brigadier general; Senate refers nomination to committee
Summary
Gov. Laura Kelly sent the nomination of Michael McCoy for confirmation as a brigadier general in the Kansas National Guard; the Senate clerk introduced the appointment and referred it to the Committee on Federal and State Affairs.
The Kansas Senate received a message from Gov. Laura Kelly introducing the nomination of Michael McCoy for confirmation as a brigadier general in the Kansas National Guard. The clerk read the governor—s message and the Senate referred the appointment to the Committee on Federal and State Affairs.
The governor—s message, read aloud in the Senate chamber, said the nomination was "submitted herewith for confirmation by the Senate of the State of Kansas, pursuant to law." The clerk then said, "This constitutes introduction of the appointment previously read" and announced the referral to the Committee on Federal and State Affairs.
Under state procedure, nominations to military general officer ranks are submitted by the governor and considered by the Senate; the transcript records introduction and referral but does not show any confirmation vote or committee action on the nomination during this session. The Committee on Federal and State Affairs will next receive the nomination for consideration, and no hearing date or vote outcome was recorded in the transcript.
