California Assembly adopts resolutions recognizing Bleeding Disorders Awareness Month and Unclaimed Property Month
Summary
The California State Assembly approved two ceremonial resolutions on the second-day consent calendar, adopting ACR 43 on Bleeding Disorders Awareness Month and HR 20 on Unclaimed Property Month by unanimous voice vote.
The California State Assembly adopted two ceremonial resolutions on its second-day consent calendar during a floor session in Sacramento on Tuesday, approving Assembly Concurrent Resolution 43 on Bleeding Disorders Awareness Month and House Resolution 20 on Unclaimed Property Month.
Both items were placed on the consent calendar and carried without debate. Clerk proceedings recorded ACR 43 as having 68 coauthors before the roll was closed. When the consent calendar was called, the clerk announced the tally: “Ayes, 70. Noes, 0.” The clerk repeated a 70–0 vote when House Resolution 20 was recorded.
The measures were taken up as part of routine business. ACR 43 was introduced by Assemblymember Pacheco and HR 20 by Assemblymember Ransom; both were approved as presented on the second-day consent calendar. The chamber did not debate either resolution during the floor proceedings recorded in the transcript.
The session opened with routine proceedings: the assembly established a quorum, heard a prayer from Reverend Patty Osta and recited the Pledge of Allegiance led by Assemblymember Carrillo. Assemblymember Ramos introduced members of the San Bernardino County law enforcement community in the gallery; a separate guest introduction welcomed representatives of the Santa Monica Rent Control Board.
Earlier in the session, Assistant Majority Leader Garcia sought unanimous consent for a procedural suspension of Assembly rule 118(a) and, pursuant to Assembly rule 96, requested the re-referral of AB 621 (Bauer-Kahan) from the Judiciary Committee to the Privacy and Consumer Protection Committee and back to Judiciary; the chair ordered those procedural items without objection. The floor later approved a motion to adjourn until Monday, March 10 at 1 p.m.
Because both ACR 43 and HR 20 were adopted on the consent calendar, no amendments or roll-call divisions were recorded in the transcript excerpt. The approvals are ceremonial resolutions and do not, according to the floor record, create programmatic or budgetary commitments.
Following adoption of the consent calendar, the clerk closed the roll and the chamber adjourned for the day.
