The Senate completed several procedural roll-call votes during the Feb. 27 floor session.

- Senate Bill 2 (highway financing / bond financing): The Senate recorded a roll-call on final question. The presiding officer announced, "Senate bill 2 has 21 aye votes, 2 nay votes, and 6 being absent, and it will pass back to the house in the concurrence and for their signature." The Senate also concurred in house amendments on other bills and received a list of house-concurred bills transmitted for signature.
Other floor actions included striking the enacting clause on at least one measure (a motion to strike the enacting clause carried), several bills placed on the second-reading calendar by unanimous voice vote, and routine communications from the House listing multiple concurred bills transmitted to the Senate president for signature.
