Senate records first readings of H.849 and H.850; H.850 referred to Finance
Summary
The Senate heard first readings of House bills H.849 (technical corrections for the 2024 session) and H.850 (transitioning education financing); senators noted the readings and the presiding officer referred H.850 to the Senate Committee on Finance for consideration.
The presiding officer announced that the reporter had requested S.309 be passed over to proceed to references and first readings of House bills. A reader recited titles for H.849 and H.850. "H850, an act relating to transitioning education financing to the new system for pupil weighting," was read and senators noted the first reading.
Senators recorded that H.850 was referred to the Senate Committee on Finance for further consideration; the presiding officer and a member announced the referral during floor proceedings. H.849 was listed as having passed the House and was given its first reading on the floor as a technical corrections bill for the 2024 legislative session.
Following the bill readings, senators used the floor to announce committee meeting times: Natural Resources & Energy at 8:30 a.m., Senate Finance at 1:30 p.m. to take up H.850, Government Operations at 1:15 p.m., Education at 1:30 p.m., and Institutions (time to be confirmed). The Senate then moved and carried a motion to adjourn until Friday, Feb. 16 at 11:30 a.m.
No roll-call votes on the bills were recorded in the transcript; outcomes recorded were procedural (first reading and committee referral).
