Senator Wharton wins motion to reconsider Senate Bill 215; measure returned to second-reading calendar
Summary
After voting on the prevailing side of Senate Bill 215, Senator Wharton successfully moved to reconsider and place the measure on the second-reading calendar; the bill is described as Senator Suazo’s license-plate measure with a funding proposal.
Senator Wharton, speaking after the chamber’s earlier votes, asked the Senate to reconsider its action on Senate Bill 215 and place it on the second-reading calendar.
"Having voted on the prevailing side of senate bill 215, I would like us to reconsider our action and place it on the second reading calendar," Wharton said. The motion carried after a voice vote.
Senate members noted that Senate Bill 215 is Senator Suazo’s bill concerning license plates; Suazo has proposed a funding arrangement related to the measure. The recorded segment did not include the bill’s full text or the details of Suazo’s funding proposal. The body placed the bill on the second-reading calendar for further consideration and potential amendment or debate at that stage.
The action returned the measure to an earlier point in the legislative calendar where senators may request hearings, amendments, or further debate before a later vote.
