House orders immediate delivery of House Bill 890 to governor
Summary
After receiving House Bill 890 from the Senate, the House of Representatives unanimously ordered the bill delivered to the governor forthwith by voice vote; the bill delays implementation of certain health insurance claims-editing requirements.
The House of Representatives ordered House Bill 890 to be delivered to the governor forthwith after receiving the bill back from the Senate.
The presiding officer announced the Senate message returning House Bill 890, describing it as "an act relating to delaying implementation of certain health insurance claims editing requirements." The presiding officer asked the Member from Pulte to move that the bill be sent to the governor under joint rule 15; the Member from Pulte said, "Madam speaker, I make a motion that pursuant to joint rule 50 15, house bill 890 be delivered to the governor forthwith." The presiding officer restated the motion and put the question.
The House decided the motion by a voice vote. The presiding officer called for ayes and nays; after the voice responses, the presiding officer said, "The ayes do have it," and announced that the House had ordered House Bill 890 delivered to the governor forthwith. No roll-call tally or recorded division was provided on the record.
The motion was presented and resolved without debate or amendment on the floor. The transcript does not specify any recorded vote counts, supporting statements about the bill's contents beyond the brief description, or any subsequent steps taken by the governor's office.
The action was taken pursuant to the House’s procedural rules for messaging bills to the governor; the motion cited joint rule 15 on the floor. The clerk had earlier circulated the day's materials to members.
