Votes at a glance: key third‑reading results, tablings and committee motions
Summary
The Senate recorded multiple third‑reading votes and several motions to table on fiscal grounds. Notable results: HB 22, HB 60, HB 161 and others were read a third time with recorded yea tallies; HB 101, HB 161, HB 195, HB 114 and HB 208 were tabled on third for fiscal impact or pending fiscal review.
During the session the Senate moved a series of bills through second and third reading and recorded multiple final tallies. The clerk read results for a number of measures and senators adopted motions to table several bills on third reading citing fiscal impact. Key outcomes recorded on the floor include:
- House Bill 22 (Utah Retirement System amendments): read a third time with the clerk announcing 26 yea, 0 nay, 3 absent.
- House Bill 60 (corporate income tax credit repeal): read a third time with 26 yea, 0 nay, 3 absent.
- House Bill 268 (property tax notice amendments): read a third time with 25 yea, 0 nay, 4 absent.
- First substitute House Bill 161 (audiology and speech‑language interstate compact): read a third time — clerk recorded 29 yea, 0 nay, 0 absent — then the body later adopted a motion to table on third for fiscal impact.
- First substitute House Bill 195 (identifying wasteful health‑care spending): read a third time (28 yea, 0 nay, 1 absent) and subsequently tabled on third for fiscal reasons.
- Third substitute House Bill 114 (early learning training and assessment amendments): read a third time (28 yea, 0 nay, 1 absent) and later tabled on third.
- House Bill 208 (alcohol education amendments): substitute failed on division; the unsubstituted bill was moved and later tabled on third for fiscal impact.
- House Bill 101 (distracted‑driver amendments): the Senate proceeded to third reading and later tabled the bill on third for fiscal impact after a close and rechecked roll call.
- First substitute House Bill 139 (DUI liability amendments): read a third time with the clerk recording 16 yea, 6 nay, 7 absent for that first substitute at the time the record was made.
Several committee and rules motions were also approved on the floor, including assignment of newly introduced bills to standing committees and a rules motion to place a bill on the top of the third reading calendar for later consideration. Where a roll‑call tally was not fully specified in the discussion, the article reflects the counts as announced by the clerk on the record.
The session recessed for committee work and planned to reconvene later in the day to continue third‑reading business.
