Committee moves three bills out of House Business and Labor in executive action
Summary
During executive session the committee concurred on Senate Bills 183, 317 and 528 (the latter as amended), adopting amendments where noted and recording proxy ayes; all three bills passed committee and are assigned carriers to move to the floor.
The House Business and Labor Committee entered executive action and voted to move three Senate bills out of committee.
Senate Bill 183: Vice Chair moved to concur on SB 183 and an amendment (183.10.1) was adopted after discussion that it resolved the bill's only opponent and clarified outfitter-licensing verification. The committee voice-voted to concur with the amendment; proxies recorded several aye votes. The committee recorded that SB 183 "has passed committee" and assigned Representative Seconder as the floor carrier.
Senate Bill 317: The committee concurred on SB 317 (a measure prohibiting health insurers from requiring prior authorization for certain psychiatric drugs in shortage or discontinued) by voice vote; proxies were recorded and the committee moved the bill to the floor with a carrier assigned.
Senate Bill 528: The committee adopted Amendment 528.1.2, which bars persons engaged in debt collection from charging credit-card transaction fees, after Representative Alder spoke in support; the amendment passed and the committee concurred on SB 528 as amended. Proxies were recorded and Representative Sprunger will carry the bill to the floor.
Votes and proxies were recorded in committee minutes; the committee did not present roll-call tallies for the vocal aye/voice votes but recorded named proxy ayes. All three bills were reported out of committee to the floor.
Ending: The committee adjourned and set a schedule to reconvene for additional executive work the following day.
