House appoints three-member committee to notify Senate the chamber is ready for joint convention

Representative Hora rose and moved that a committee of three be appointed to notify the Senate the House was ready to receive it in joint convention. The Speaker called for the question, members responded "Aye," and the Speaker declared the ayes had it, approving the motion by voice vote.

The Speaker then named the committee members: Representative Hora of Washington, Representative Shipley of Van Buren, and Representative Ellert of Lynn. The Speaker instructed the committee to proceed with the duties of notification to the Senate. The motion was a procedural appointment; the transcript records the voice approval but does not contain a roll-call or recorded vote tally.

This action is a procedural step to coordinate a joint convention between the two chambers; no additional floor debate or amendments to the motion were recorded in this session.
