Votes at a glance: House passes several technical and procedural measures
Summary
On July 5, 2002, the Utah House approved technical corrections to Adult Protective Services (HB 5,001), advanced several bills to third-reading calendars, and circled (postponed) the legislator-salaries bill (HB 5,004); a group motion under suspension moved multiple items for second reading.
The Utah House completed several procedural and low-substance measures during its July 5, 2002 floor session. House Bill 5,001 (technical revisions to Adult Protective Services captions) was described by Representative Patricia Jones as caption-only corrections with no changes to bill text; summation was waived and the bill passed and will be forwarded to the Senate.
House Bill 5,004 (salaries for legislators) was "circled" after Representative Joseph Murray moved to set it aside; the motion to circle passed by voice vote on the floor (no vote tally recorded in the captured transcript).
Earlier, the House agreed under suspension of the rules to read several items for their second reading and place them on third-reading calendars, including HJR 502 and other items read by the clerk. Clerks later reported Senate communications and transmitted bills to the House for signatures and scheduling; leadership announced caucus and committee meeting times for the following day, and the House adjourned to reconvene at 10 a.m. the next day.
Votes at a glance (from the recorded transcript): HB 5,001 — passed (vote not fully tallied in transcript but reported to pass and will be forwarded to the Senate); HB 5,004 — motion to circle passed (tally not recorded); multiple bills were placed on third-reading calendars under a suspension of rules motion.
