Committee concurrences, tabling and carriers: quick guide to Tuesday executive action
Summary
During executive action the committee concurred in Senate Bills 95 and 412, amended and concurred in SB 147 (MiQA sunset removal), tabled SB 231, and concurred in SB 194 after removing it from the table.
The House Health and Human Services Committee completed executive action on several Senate bills.
- Senate Bill 95 (sponsor Senator Yackowitz): Vice Chair Buttrey moved to concur; the committee approved by voice vote with proxies recorded.
- Senate Bill 147 (sponsor referenced): Committee approved Amendment 147.1.6—which removes most provisions and retains the MiQA sunset removal and tribal-notification requirement—then concurred in the bill as amended; Representative Close accepted carrier duties for the floor.
- Senate Bill 231 (sponsor Senator Emmerich): After discussion of structural concerns and missing stakeholders, a substitute motion to table the bill was adopted by voice vote; SB 231 was moved to the table.
- Senate Bill 412 (sponsor Senator Smith): Committee concurred by voice vote; the bill provides no-cost documents (birth certificates, driver licenses, state IDs, student transcripts) for former foster youth.
- Senate Bill 194 (sponsor Senator Trevis): Committee removed the bill from the table by roll-call (12-9) and then concurred by roll-call (12-9); debate centered on the role of the Board of Public Assistance in providing an accessible appeals forum.
Proxies were widely used across voice votes and recorded during roll calls where noted. The committee adjourned after completing executive action and announced possible further executive action later in the week.
