Senate recesses for Democratic caucus until 10 a.m.
Summary
During a brief procedural action, the Senate recessed by unanimous consent so Democratic senators could hold a caucus in Room 10 and return at 10 a.m.
During a short session, the Senate recessed until 10 a.m. after the senator from Chittenden moved for a Democratic caucus in Room 10.
The recess paused legislative business so Democratic senators could meet privately and return at a time certain of 10 a.m. The motion was granted without objection.
"I would like at this time to move that we stand in recess until 10:00," the senator from Chittenden said. Explaining the request, the senator added: "My reason for that is I would like to have a caucus of Democrats in Room 10, starting now and coming back at a time certain of 10AM. Yeah. Doing this. I'm just vote. We should vote."
The presiding officer approved the request by unanimous consent, stating, "Without objection, we will stand in recess until 10AM." The motion did not record a separate second or a roll-call vote.
The Senate is scheduled to reconvene at 10 a.m. following the caucus in Room 10.
