House adopts housekeeping amendments and passes H.546, miscellaneous tax bill
Summary
H.546 (administrative and policy changes to tax law) received two floor amendments described as housekeeping by Representative Kornheiser; both were adopted and the bill was passed by the House on third reading by voice vote.
The House considered H.546, a miscellaneous tax bill containing administrative and policy changes to state tax law, and adopted two floor amendments before passing the measure.
Representative Kornheiser (member from Brattleboro) offered two amendments described on the floor as largely housekeeping changes with little fiscal impact: the first clarified property valuation language to ensure consistent valuation methods statewide; the second relocated fee language from the budget bill into the miscellaneous tax bill and included a provision to provide vital records at no cost for people exiting homelessness or foster care. Both amendments were adopted on voice votes.
After the floor amendments, the Speaker called the third reading of H.546 and members approved the bill; the presiding officer announced that the ayes had it and that the bill had passed the House.
What happens next: H.546 passed the House; the transcript records adoption on voice vote and passage but does not include a roll‑call tally.
