House reads introductory bills, sends six bond initiatives to Appropriations; Senate bill 42 referred to Environment and Transportation
Summary
The Maryland House of Delegates read multiple introductory house bills and referred six bond initiatives to the Appropriations Committee during its Feb. 25, 2025 session; Senate Bill 42 was referred to the Environment and Transportation Committee.
The Maryland House of Delegates read several introductory bills for the first time and referred them to committee during its Feb. 25, 2025 session. The chamber also sent six bond initiatives to the Appropriations Committee and referred a senate-originating bill to the Environment and Transportation Committee.
On the consent calendar the clerk read House Bills 1543 through 1554. After the reading the presiding officer announced, "Hearing no objection, the bills are read the first time and referred to the appropriate committees." The transcript does not list specific committee assignments for each of those house bills in the recorded excerpt.
Separately, the clerk read Introductory House Bond Initiatives numbers 55 through 60 and recorded that each was referred to the Appropriations Committee. The transcript lists the bond initiative numbers and the referral to appropriations explicitly.
The clerk also read a senate-originating measure: Senate Bill 42 (sponsored by Sen. M. Washington), which the transcript records as referred to the Environment and Transportation Committee.
All readings and referrals reported in the transcript were taken by voice and recorded as "read and referred"; no roll-call votes or floor debate on the substance of these measures appear in the provided excerpt. The House later recessed during the same sitting following a motion by the majority leader.
