Committee advances several bills to the floor, records roll‑call votes
Summary
In executive action the Senate Business and Labor Committee voted to advance or concur on multiple bills: it moved Senate Bill 183 and House Bill 60 to the floor, approved an extension moratorium (Senate Bill 27), handled amendments to SB110, and passed a resolution (SJ5) urging congressional action on banking for state‑legal cannabis businesses.
After a break the Senate Business and Labor Committee took executive action on several measures.
The panel moved Senate Bill 183 (outfitter endorsement requirement tied to guide licensure) to the Senate floor following discussion. By unanimous voice vote the committee concurred in House Bill 60, which updates processes at the state auditor’s office and clarifies surplus‑lines premium treatment. "With unanimous vote, House Bill number 60 will be concurred in," the clerk recorded.
Senate Bill 27 — extending a moratorium on new marijuana premises licenses through July 1, 2027 — passed on roll call with eight ayes and three no votes; the chair announced the bill would move to the floor.
Senate Bill 110 (amusement‑ride inspection and safety standards) drew extended debate. An initial amendment to raise minimum insurance coverage for operators failed on a roll call (4–7). A compromise amendment requiring operators to post a copy of the most recent inspection certificate and inspector contact information passed 6–5. Later in the session the sponsor withdrew the motion to advance SB110, leaving the bill for further work.
Senate Joint Resolution 5 (Safer Banking) passed by voice vote and was recorded 9–2 in favor; the committee will forward the nonbinding resolution to the Senate floor.
What’s next: Bills that received do‑pass or concurrence votes will be scheduled for floor consideration. SB110 will return to the committee or sponsor for revision after members requested clarifying language and legal review on temporary versus stationary‑ride definitions.
