Votes at a glance: Health committee adopts substitutes and advances several bills in executive session
Summary
In executive session the House Health and Mental Health Committee adopted substitutes and recorded "do pass" votes on multiple bills, including an epinephrine-related substitute and HB 2,372; recorded tallies included several unanimous or near-unanimous roll calls.
During executive session the House Health and Mental Health Committee adopted a House committee substitute related to epinephrine delivery systems and voted a package of committee substitutes as "do pass." The committee clerk recorded a roll call that the substitutes for House Bills 18 26, 25 60, 23 49 and 20 94 were voted "do pass" with a tally announced by the chair as 17 ayes and 0 nos.
Later in the session the committee adopted and voted a substitute for HB 2,372; the roll call recorded a vote of 17 ayes and 1 no on that bill. The committee also voted House Bill 18 27 (occupational therapy / disabled placards and license plates) as "do pass" with a recorded vote of 18 yes, 0 no.
Committee actions taken in executive session were procedural votes to advance bills to the full House calendar; the transcript records roll-call tallies and the clerk's readouts but does not include sponsor floor amendments beyond the substitute and amendment numbers announced. Committee members and staff said some language changes were technical (for example, changing "delivery device" to "delivery system" to cover newer epinephrine technologies).
