Utah House Concurred With Senate Amendments to HB 2003; Reads, Transmits Other Bills and Prepares to Adjourn

The Utah House of Representatives voted to concur with Senate amendments to House Bill 2003, approving the trust-law revisions and sending the measure back to the Senate for signature. The chamber also announced that House Bills 2002 and 2004 were read by title and transmitted for enrollment.

Representative G. Clark, who presented the House motion, said, "I would make a motion that we concur with the Senate's amendment," and explained the amendment was a technical wording change: "we just moved struck those 4 words out and placed a period at the end of that sentence" to clarify the bill's reference. Members proceeded to a voice vote after discussion was waived.

The presiding officer announced the motion had passed, reporting the tally as "70 yes votes," and said the concurrence would be referred to the Senate for the Speaker's signature. The House also recorded that the Senate had concurred with House amendments on House Bill 2001.

Representative Curtis moved that the Speaker be authorized to appoint a committee to notify the Senate and the Governor that the House had completed its business and was prepared to adjourn. Representative Moss volunteered to serve on the committee; the transcript does not record a formal roll-call vote on that motion.

The session's actions recorded in the transcript focused on procedural steps to reconcile chamber differences and conclude the day's business. No fiscal or programmatic details of the bills were discussed in the recorded segments.
