Committee reports SB170 to full Senate under double-reference to finance
Summary
The committee voted to report Senate Bill 170 to the full Senate without recommendation and under its original double committee reference to be first referred to the Finance Committee; one senator said he could not vote due to unfamiliarity with the bill.
The Senate Committee on Education reported Senate Bill 170 to the full Senate without recommendation for passage and under the bill’s original double-committee reference so it will first be referred to the Senate Finance Committee.
Vice Chair moved to report SB170 to the full Senate without recommendation as to passage and that, under the original double committee reference, the bill first be referred to the Committee on Finance. The committee approved the motion on a voice vote. A senator from Cabell said on the record he could not vote because he was not familiar with the bill and planned to read it before voting on the Senate floor.
Next steps: SB170 will appear on the full Senate calendar and, under the double reference, will be routed first to the Finance Committee for review.
