Senate moves a large slate of House bills to third reading and passes several measures to send to the House
Summary
On Feb. 7–8 the Senate recorded multiple roll-call outcomes: a number of House bills were placed on the third reading calendar and several Senate bills were passed and sent to the House, including SJR 10 and a third substitute of SB 27.
During the floor session the Senate handled a large number of bills and committee reports. Several items were recorded on roll call; the clerk announced vote tallies in open session. Highlights from the transcript record:
• House Bill 242: "Having received 25 aye votes, 0 nay votes," the clerk announced the bill will move to the third reading calendar.
• House Bill 75 (Navajo Revitalization Fund Amendments): the clerk recorded it "having received 25 aye votes, no nay votes" and the bill passed to the third reading calendar.
• House Bill 196 (DUI probation amendments): the clerk recorded 26 aye votes, no nay votes; the bill passed to the third reading calendar and was later tabled on third reading because of a fiscal note.
• House Bill 200 (Ignition interlock amendments): recorded as having received 25 aye votes, no nay votes; passed to third reading.
• House Bill 201 (DUI revisions): recorded as having received 25 aye votes, no nay votes; passed to third reading.
• House Bill 81 (alcohol server training): received 27 aye votes, no nay votes; passed to third reading.
• SJR 10 (resolution recognizing Perry's Egyptian Theater): recorded as having received 26 aye votes, no nay votes, and was transmitted to the House for further action.
• Third substitute Senate Bill 27 (mining machinery tax credit, as amended on the floor): the clerk announced final passage with 23 aye votes, 4 nay votes, and 2 being absent; the bill will be referred to the House for further action.
Other bills and committee-assignment motions were agreed or moved to calendars by voice or roll-call throughout the session. Several bills were "circled" for additional work or fiscal follow-up instead of being taken to final vote. The clerk and readers recorded votes by senator name for each roll-call item included in the day's record.
