The New York State Assembly advanced the consent calendar and passed multiple bills during the floor session. The clerk read bills by calendar number and sponsor; several items were recorded as passed, some were laid aside for later consideration.
Examples of results recorded on the floor include Assembly number 38 (sponsor Burdick) — a bill directing the Department of Labor to establish a voluntary training and certification program — which the clerk announced as passed with the tally "Ayes, 143; Nays, 0." Several other bills recorded on the consent calendar were passed with similar voice or recorded tallies, and many bills were noted as "laid aside" for later action.
The session used the consent calendar to process a large volume of bills efficiently; sponsors and clerks noted effective dates for certain acts as they were read (for instance, one bill was noted to take effect on the ninetieth day, another to take effect immediately). The clerk recorded multiple vote tallies during the consent calendar and announced each bill’s disposition as read.
After the consent-calendar processing, the Assembly continued with introductions and committee calls and then adjourned to reconvene at 10:30 a.m. on Tuesday, January 13.
