Committee advances five bills in executive session, reading titles and recording due‑pass recommendations
Summary
In executive session the committee moved due‑pass recommendations (voice votes) for SB 5,877, SB 5,904, SB 5,915, SB 5,967, and SB 6,025; each motion carried and the bills were passed 'subject to signatures.'
During the Jan. 20 executive session, the Senate Health and Long Term Care Committee considered several bills previously heard and recorded staff briefings. Committee member motions and voice votes produced 'due pass' recommendations for the following bills, each carried by voice vote and recorded as 'passed, subject to signatures':
- Senate Bill 5,877: technical correction to surcharges authorized for certified anesthesiologist assistants (moved by the vice chair; passed by voice vote).
- Senate Bill 5,904: establishes that only a human person licensed by the state may use a nursing title and associated abbreviations or signs (moved by the vice chair; passed by voice vote).
- Senate Bill 5,915: concerning the health technology assessment program (moved and passed by voice vote).
- Senate Bill 5,967: preserving access to preventive services by clarifying state authority and definitions (moved and passed by voice vote).
- Senate Bill 6,025: updates the definition of fetal death (moved and passed by voice vote).
Committee members verbally recorded 'aye' for each motion and the chair announced each bill passed and subject to signatures. The committee then exited executive session and adjourned.
