Joint convention convenes; motions to spread governor's remarks and to adjourn carried by voice vote
Summary
The Utah Legislature resolved into a joint convention, heard the governor's State of the State, approved a motion to spread the governor's remarks on the Senate Journal, and adjourned — all by voice vote as recorded in the session.
SALT LAKE CITY — The Utah Legislature convened a joint session to hear Governor Michael O. Leavitt's 1999 State of the State address. Representative Greg Curtis moved to resolve into a joint convention; the motion was approved by voice vote.
After the address, Senator Lyle Hilliard moved that "the complete text of the governor's remarks be spread on the pages of the Senate Journal," and the motion was approved by voice vote. Senator Hilliard then moved to adjourn the joint convention; that motion also passed by voice vote.
Votes were recorded on the record as voice votes with "Aye" called; no roll-call tallies were provided in the address transcript.
