Senate recommits S 301, an agricultural omnibus bill, to Committee on Agriculture

On the floor the presiding senator identified S 301 as "an act relating to miscellaneous agricultural subjects." Later a senator identified in the transcript as the 'Senator from Orleans' moved that S 301 be recommitted to the Committee on Agriculture for further consideration. The presiding senator restated the motion for the record; the transcript records the motion but does not include a roll-call tally or floor debate on the bill’s substance.

Because the motion was to recommit the bill to committee, no substantive provisions of S 301 were discussed on the floor during this session and the transcript contains no description of the bill’s text beyond its short caption. The transcript records that the motion to recommit was made and placed on the calendar for notice; the subsequent floor business continued to adjournment.
