Committee votes 'ought not to pass' on bill to change CTE funding method
Summary
Committee members voted 9— to 1 to carry a motion that LD 2014, which would update the funding method for career and technical education programs, 'ought not to pass.' Representative Kelly Murphy requested the vote and the chair announced the tally; a minority 'ought to pass' view was recorded.
Representative Kelly Murphy opened the public hearing on LD 2014, a Department of Education bill proposing an update to the funding method for career and technical education programs, and told the committee she requested the bill be immediately voted 'ought not to pass.'
A motion to vote 'ought not to pass' was moved and seconded on the floor. The chair conducted a hand vote and announced a final tally of 9 in favor and 1 opposed; the motion that LD 2014 'ought not to pass' carried. Representative Hagan recorded the minority position as 'ought to pass.'
Committee members flagged implementation and fiscal considerations. One member noted that changing a funding mechanism typically creates a fiscal note; another said the administrative details should be returned in an amended ought-to-pass if a fiscal note is required. The committee will address those technical and fiscal issues in follow-up work session proceedings.
Next procedural step: the committee carried the motion that the bill 'ought not to pass'; members indicated staff and sponsors will reconcile fiscal questions and any recommended amendments at work session.
