Roundup: House concurrence calendar — several bills circled, HB 308 and SB 80 passed
Summary
On the House floor the concurrence calendar concluded with multiple items moved: HB 64 and First Substitute HB 308 passed and will be returned to the Senate; the House refused to concur on HB 371 and requested a conference; multiple Senate bills (SB 193, SB 187, SB 66, SB 208) were placed back on the calendar (circled).
The Utah House addressed several items on the concurrence and third-reading calendars, approving some measures and returning others to further consideration.
Final passage and concurrence actions - Substitute House Bill 64: Clerk announced the bill passed the House with a tally of 63 yes and 5 no; the bill will be returned to the Senate for the President's signature. - First Substitute House Bill 308 (workers' compensation — motor carriers): Representative Don Ibsen moved to concur with the Senate amendments, noting the changes were technical and included supplemental-insurance language; the motion passed and the clerk recorded a 69–0 final tally, with the bill returned to the Senate for signature.
Non-concurrence / conference committee - First Substitute House Bill 371 (Transportation Governance): Representative Wayne Harper moved that the House refuse to concur with the Senate amendments because a sentence was omitted in the Senate version; the motion passed and the Speaker indicated Representative Harper would be appointed to the conference committee to resolve the issue.
Bills circled (recirculated) - Second Substitute Senate Bill 208 (Utah public notice website amendment) — motion to recirculate passed. - Senate Bill 193 (Salvage Vehicles Amendment) — motion to circle passed pending an amendment; Representative Dee moved on the floor. - First Substitute Senate Bill 187 (Alcohol Amendment) — motion to circle passed. - Senate Bill 66 (Highway Designation Amendments) — motion to circle passed.
Other messages and procedural items - The Secretary of the Senate transmitted a message that First Substitute House Bill 356 (barber/cosmetologist/esthetician licensing amendments) had been signed by the President of the Senate and was transmitted to the Speaker for signature and enrollment. - The Senate appointed a conference committee to meet with a House committee on Substitute SB 78 (protection of constitutionally guaranteed activities in certain private venues). - The Speaker moved and the House approved a brief 10-minute recess (referred to on the floor as a motion to 'saunter').
Next steps: Bills that passed will be signed and transmitted for enrollment or returned to the Senate; bills that were circled will return to the calendar for additional consideration or amendment.
