Votes at a glance: House advances several technical and policy bills to the Senate
Summary
On Feb. 19, 1993 the Utah House approved multiple bills on second/third reading with largely procedural or technical changes: Substitute HB 355 (procurement corrections) passed 61–2; HB 226 (insurance code technical) passed 76–0; HB 239 (community college degree authority) passed 57–1; Substitute HB 2 (intensive early release parole program) passed 57–18.
The Utah House disposed of numerous bills in brief floor action on Feb. 19, advancing a mix of technical corrections and policy measures to the Senate.
Substitute House Bill 355 (procurement code technical corrections) was discussed on the floor to update names and clarify that the surplus property division had been separated from procurement; the House adopted the substitute and the floor readout shows the vote as 61 affirmative and 2 negative. House Bill 2 26 (insurance code definitions technical amendment) was amended and passed by voice and roll call as read (76 affirmative, 0 negative). Substitute House Bill 239 (community college degree authority) cleared the House by 57 affirmative and 1 negative; sponsor Representative Howard said the change would allow the Board of Regents to permit limited four-year degree tests at specified community colleges and does not appropriate funds. The House also adopted substitute House Bill 2 (intensive early release parole program) after reconsideration; the floor readout records 57 affirmative and 18 negative votes.
These bills were placed on the calendar for Senate consideration or referred to the Senate as read on the floor. Several other bills were circled for later work or moved to the third-reading calendar; details were handled under the rules committee report.
