Utah Legislature advances resolution honoring 2020 graduates and moves budget measures to calendars
Summary
Representative Hawkes moved under suspension of the rules to lift SCR 501, a concurrent resolution honoring the graduating class of 2020, and to place budget measures SB 5001 and HB 5,012 on third-reading calendars; the motion passed by voice vote and HB 5,012 was noted as read and referred to the House Rules Committee.
Representative Hawkes moved under suspension of the rules that SCR 501, a concurrent resolution honoring the graduating class of 2020, be lifted from rules and placed on the House time-certain calendar. The motion also sought to lift Senate Bill 5001 (a budget-balancing and coronavirus relief appropriation adjustment) to the Senate third-reading calendar and House Bill 5,012 (Public Education Budget amendments) to the House third-reading calendar.
The action followed clerk announcements that several measures had been read for the first time and referred to the House Rules Committee. Clerk Adam Breeding introduced bills and named House Bill 5,012 as the "Public Education Budget," with amendments noted by Representative Eliason.
During floor proceedings, the presiding officer asked for discussion and then called for a voice vote. Representative Hawkes said, "Aye," and the presiding officer declared the motion passed by voice vote. The transcript records no roll-call or numeric tally for the vote; no individual oppositions were recorded on the floor in the provided transcript.
The measures will appear on their respective third-reading calendars for further consideration; HB 5,012 was earlier read for the first time and referred to the House Rules Committee. The session moved on after brief scheduling remarks from the presiding officer indicating an intent to finish business that day.
