Committee approves HJ34 supporting Montana beef producers, adopts amendment
Summary
The Senate Agriculture Committee approved House Joint Resolution 34, backing Montana beef producers, and adopted a small-strike amendment before voting the resolution out of committee by voice vote.
The Senate Agriculture Committee moved HJ34 — a joint resolution supporting Montana beef producers — and approved it as amended during a short executive-action sequence.
A committee member moved a do-pass recommendation on House Joint Resolution 34. Members then discussed and introduced Amendment HJ0034.001, which the sponsor of the amendment described as removing two phrases that the sponsor believed were inconsistent with the resolution's intent. Another committee member moved the amendment; the committee approved the amendment by voice vote.
After the amendment passed, the committee moved and approved a do-pass recommendation on House Joint Resolution 34 as amended. The committee recorded the action by voice vote and advanced the resolution to the next step in the process.
The hearing record does not include detailed debate on the substance of HJ34 beyond the amendment's textual changes. The committee treated proxies as assumed yes during the voting sequence and adjourned shortly afterward.
