Votes at a glance: key actions taken in the Senate Judiciary Committee session
Summary
During executive action the committee voted on multiple bills: it passed several measures out of committee (including SB 3‑12, SB 3‑70, SB 2‑61 and SB 127), tabled SB 2‑84, and recorded roll calls and proxy votes for multiple motions.
The Senate Judiciary Committee moved multiple measures during executive action following the hearings on SB 3‑18 and SB 3‑12. Below are the committee’s recorded formal actions and outcomes as captured on the hearing record.
Summary of recorded actions:
- Senate Bill 3‑29 (clerked reference in the minutes): The committee recorded a vote and announced the bill "has passed out of Senate Judiciary" (committee roll‑call indicated 6 yes, 2 no at the moment captured).
- Senate Bill 3‑70 (jury daily pay): The committee adopted a bifurcated amendment and then passed SB 3‑70 as amended; a voice vote and roll call recorded support and proxies.
- Senate Bill 2‑84: Motion to table the bill carried (voice vote) at the sponsor’s request.
- Senate Bill 3‑12: Moved and passed out of committee (voice vote with proxies recorded); sponsor and advocates supported advancing the bill.
- Senate Bill 2‑61 (endangering welfare of children): Committee adopted a negotiated amendment addressing lawful marijuana use and exposure and then passed the bill as amended (roll call recorded, motion passed).
- Senate Bill 1‑27 (justifiable use of force / self‑defense cleanup): Committee removed a previous amendment, adopted a revised amendment and passed SB 1‑27 as amended (roll call recorded; vote tallies show five yes, three no in recorded roll call for final passage in this transcript excerpt).
What the records show: The official transcript includes roll calls and proxy vote statements for several of these actions; where a proxy vote was used, the committee secretary recorded the vote by proxy. The committee chair handled amendment drafting and indicated members should get amendments to staff promptly.
Next steps: Bills passed out of committee proceed to the Senate calendar and further floor consideration. Tabled items remain on the committee’s docket for possible revival.
