Washington House adopts three resolutions by unanimous consent, refers introductions and adjourns
Summary
The Washington state House adopted three noncontroversial resolutions recognizing international ties and an educational institution, referred bills and committee reports for first reading, and adjourned until 10:30 a.m. Wednesday, Feb. 4, all by unanimous consent.
Unidentified Speaker, the presiding officer not named in the transcript, said the House was in order and, with the consent of the House, approved the minutes of the preceding day.
The House adopted three resolutions by unanimous consent. The presiding speaker announced 'House resolution 46 68 recognizing the importance of a strong and enduring partnership between the people of Washington state and the people of Taiwan.' The speaker also announced 'House resolution 46 74 congratulating Western Governors University' and 'House resolution 46 76, recognizing the relationship between Washington and Quebec.' Each adoption concluded with the phrase recorded in the transcript: 'Hearing no objection, so ordered.'
Under the fourth order of business, the presiding speaker said that, 'with the consent of the House, the bills, memorials and resolutions printed on today's introduction sheet will be considered first reading under the fourth order of business and will be referred to the committees so designated.' The House approved that referral by unanimous consent. The presiding speaker then stated that, 'with the consent of the House, the bills listed on today's committee reports under the fifth order of business will be referred to the committees so designated,' and again there was no objection.
Before adjourning, the presiding speaker moved that, 'with the consent of the House, the House will now adjourn until 10:30AM, Wednesday, February 4, the 20 fourth legislative day,' and the motion was approved with the transcript reporting, 'Hearing no objection, so ordered.' The speaker then confirmed, 'The house is now adjourned until 10:30AM, Wednesday, February 4.'
No votes, roll calls, amendments, or individual speakers were recorded in the transcript beyond the presiding speaker's procedural announcements. The session's substantive actions were the adoption of the three resolutions, referrals of introductions and committee-reported bills for first reading, and the scheduling of the next meeting time.
