The Guam Legislature conducted routine session business and advanced several nominations on unanimous consent before recessing for the Thanksgiving period.

Majority Leader Senator Mohan moved to approve the legislative journals dated 09/29/2025 and 10/24/2025 “subject to corrections,” and the presiding officer announced the motion carried after hearing no objections. Mohan then moved to append communications, petitions and standing committee reports to the session journal and to deem a block of newly introduced bills and resolutions given their first reading; each motion carried by unanimous consent.

Several nominations were placed in the voting file with recommendations to confirm. Senator Salas Matinoni moved to place the nomination of Julian r Duenas, a physical therapist, as the physical therapy representative on the Guam Board of Allied Health Examiners, “with the recommendation to confirm.” Senator Lehan moved to place the nomination of Doyona Murado to the AB Wampat International Airport Authority board of directors with a recommendation to confirm. Senator Borja moved to place Zena S. N. Ruiz’s nomination to the Guam Historic Preservation Review Board into the voting file with a recommendation to confirm. Senator Moore moved to place the nomination of Carl e Torres as a parent representative on the Guam Education Board into the voting file with a recommendation to confirm. Each nomination was approved for placement in the voting file after no members objected.

During member announcements, Senator Barnett publicized the Salvation Army’s annual Thanksgiving luncheon, set for tomorrow at Tomorrow Village at 11 a.m., and urged public participation. The Legislature then recessed on a motion from Senator Lujan: “I motion to recess until Monday at 10AM, mister speaker.” The presiding officer announced there were no objections and the body recessed until the stated date and time.

No roll-call votes were recorded in the transcript; motions were carried by unanimous consent as noted on the record. The session included ceremonial elements—a prayer and a recognition of Specialist 4 Harold James Finney Jr.—that were ceremonial rather than legislative actions. The next procedural step on the nominations is the pending vote when the nominations are taken up from the voting file.
