House approves journal, enrolls bills for the governor and adjourns to June 23
Summary
The House approved the June 18 journal by voice vote, the enrolling clerk reported several bills as duly ratified for presentation to the governor, and the House adjourned to reconvene Monday, June 23 at 1:00 PM under Rule 15.1.
The House convened, approved the June 18 journal and enrolled a slate of bills for presentation to the governor before adjourning to reconvene Monday, June 23 at 1:00 PM.
Representative Penny moved to approve the journal for June 18 "as written," and the Speaker called for a voice vote. "The ayes have it and the journal is approved as written," the Speaker declared. The motion passed by voice vote; numerical counts were not specified in the record.
The enrolling clerk reported the following bills as duly ratified for presentation to the governor: Senate Bill 344, an act to ensure that transfers of assets for fair-market value to pooled special needs trusts by seniors age 65 and older do not adversely affect eligibility for Medicaid or state/county assistance; Senate Bill 400, concerning establishment of local adult protective multidisciplinary teams; Senate Bill 40, enacting recommendations of the General Statutes Commission; House Bill 91, amending the definition of "armed forces of the United States" to include the newly established U.S. Space Force; House Bill 247, updating the Underground Utility Safety and Damage Prevention Act; House Bill 373, permitting constituent institutions of the University of North Carolina to provide discounted tuition to certain tuition-assisted or employer-supported students; House Bill 421, clarifying various motor vehicle dealer laws; and House Bill 612, making changes to laws affecting juveniles, social services boards and departments, and regional social services boards and departments. The enrolling clerk identified the bills for enrollment; no floor debate or separate recorded roll-call votes on those enrollments were recorded in the transcript.
Before adjournment, the Speaker thanked the pages for their work during the week. Representative Penny moved that the House adjourn and reconvene Monday, June 23 at 1:00 PM, subject to the standard stipulation in Rule 15.1; Representative White seconded. The Speaker called for a voice vote and declared the ayes carried. "The ayes have it, and the House stands adjourned," the Speaker said.
Next steps: the bills the clerk reported as ratified were enrolled for transmission to the governor, and the House will next meet on Monday, June 23 at 1:00 PM under Rule 15.1.
