Notes on procedure and scope: Several items were routine vehicle appropriations or one-time appropriations that committees favorably recommended to the floor; others were tabled after budget office concerns or as part of caucus disposition in a constrained budget year. Tabling motions are non-debatable and reflect committee disposition at this time; bills that received do-pass recommendations will proceed to floor calendars where the full chamber will consider them.

If you need the full roll-call list for any specific item (member-by-member votes as announced), request the individual bill and we will extract the speaker-by-speaker roll call from the transcript.
