The Senate recorded final‑action roll‑call results and procedural transmittals on several measures during the floor session. Below are the key outcomes announced on the floor (as reported in the transcript):
- Fourth substitute Senate Bill 58 (controlled substances — emergency prescribing access): reported 24 yeas, 2 nays, 3 absent; the chamber concurred and the bill was processed for further consideration.
- Third substitute Senate Bill 122 (wildland fire policy updates): sponsor explained a fiscal‑note technical amendment and the chamber recorded passage (reported votes on the record when taken).

- Third substitute House Bill 358 (student data privacy and interoperability): reported 25 yeas, 0 nays, 4 absent; passed and sent to the House for further consideration.
The floor also appointed and directed several conference committees where the House and Senate did not concur on amendments (for example, on a compulsory education revision bill) and lifted multiple House bills from rules to the second‑reading calendar for prioritization. For bills that passed on the floor, the transcript reports the roll‑call tallies as recorded at the time of voting. Some items were sent to conference committees and will return for further action if the chambers cannot agree.
For the precise statutory text, amendments, and any technical fiscal notes referenced on the floor, readers should consult the enrolled bill language and fiscal staff analyses later posted by the Legislature.
