Votes at a glance: key House actions, Jan. 31, 1996
Summary
On Jan. 31 the Utah House advanced a slate of bills and resolutions: SJR2 (legislative auditor) and several bills (SB7, SB6) passed on the floor; the House also passed HB22, HB64, HB77 and other measures reported by committees. Vote tallies are reported as they appear in the session transcript.
The Jan. 31 House floor session recorded votes on multiple items. The following list pulls the vote tallies and brief descriptions as presented in the transcript.
- SJR2 (reappointment of legislative auditor Wayne Welch): recorded in transcript as 68 yes, 0 no (see transcript lines surrounding SEG 296–304).
- SB7 (practice permit amendments): transcript records 70 yes, 0 no (SEG 370–376).
- SB6 (proof of motor‑vehicle insurance): transcript records 70 yes, 1 no (SEG 575–578).
- HB22 (unclaimed property of agricultural cooperatives — amendments adopted): transcript records 68 yes, 0 no (SEG 1201–1204).
- HB64 (Utah Centennial Opportunity Program for Education): transcript records 45 yes, 27 no (SEG 1683–1685).
- HB16 (numbered in transcript as '16' when read on the floor): transcript records 49 yes, 18 no (SEG 1371–1373); the item was forwarded to the Senate.
- HB66 (civil/business amendment): transcript records 68 yes, 1 no (SEG 1446–1448).
- HB77 (Appropriations / hatchery funding): transcript shows a passage line printed as 'House bill 77, having 2 57 yes votes. 12 notes, no votes' (SEG 1773–1775). Transcript formatting of the tally is unclear — likely intended as '257 yes, 12 no' but the printed segments are garbled; readers should consult the official journal for an authoritative tally.
Notes on accuracy and next steps: tallies above are reproduced from the session transcript. Where the transcript formatting is ambiguous (notably HB77), this summary preserves the session text and flags the inconsistency. For final authoritative vote counts consult the House journal or the Secretary/Chief Clerk's certified record.
