Summary

Members set witness schedules for H578 with sessions Tuesday and Wednesday, and Speaker 1 said there is a path to return later on the recidivism bill (H4 10), indicating ongoing development rather than immediate votes.

Unidentified Speaker (S1) said H578 witness hearings will begin Tuesday afternoon and continue into Wednesday with testimony both morning and afternoon; he said he hopes H578 can be handled as a two-day bill to leave room for other important items.

Earlier in the meeting S1 referenced a recidivism bill identified as H4 10 and said 'I have a path, and we'll bring something back at some point,' indicating the committee expects additional work rather than an immediate decision.

Speakers encouraged targeted scheduling so the committee can manage multiple items and asked members to submit witness requests to support fuller hearings next week.
