Senate panel hears brief introduction of House Bill 1934, a life-without-parole proposal for crimes against minors
Summary
Members discussed bringing House Bill 1934—described in the transcript as a life-without-parole measure for certain crimes against minors—back to committee; copies were not available and the sponsor said they expected to work on it next week.
Speaker 2 asked Mister Garner whether House Bill 1934 could be run even though it was not on the agenda. Speaker 3 responded that HB 1934 is "life without parole, for ... and other crimes against minors," and described it as similar to another bill addressing capital cases but as a life-without-parole measure.
Speaker 3 said copies were not available to the committee and offered to wait, noting that he expected the committee to meet next week and that he could get copies and work on the bill Monday. Speaker 2 and others confirmed availability for Monday. The transcript records only this introductory discussion; no debate, amendment or vote on HB 1934 appears in the provided excerpt.
Because the transcript contains only a short introduction and scheduling discussion, no formal action on HB 1934 is recorded here.
