Committee adopts amendment removing appropriation from House Bill 188
Summary
The House Development Committee accepted Amendment 0572 to House Bill 188, removing the bill’s appropriation and changing how members of a proposed partnership are selected; Vice Chair Lorenz moved the amendment and Representative Hall explained the changes to the committee.
During the committee’s third hearing on House Bill 188, Vice Chair Lorenz moved adoption of Amendment 0572. Representative Hall, a joint sponsor, explained the amendment removed the bill’s attached appropriation — because the item will not be part of the next budget vote — and revised selection rules for leaders choosing members to the proposed trade partnership (two members from the majority party and one from the minority party selected by chamber leaders).
Ranking Member Abdulahi said he supported removing the appropriation as a stewardship measure. With no objections raised on the floor, the chair stated the amendment would become part of the bill and the third hearing concluded.
The committee took no separate roll-call vote on the amendment during the session; the chair announced the amendment’s incorporation into the bill as the committee proceeded to other business.
