Senate adopts floor amendment to SB2203; 48-hour notice set for third reading
Summary
Senator Rhodes offered and the Senate adopted a floor amendment to SB2203, SD1 restoring language suggested by the Honolulu Police Department that had been omitted. The presiding officer gave 48-hour notice for third reading of SB2203 SD2.
Senator Ronald Rhodes offered Floor Amendment No. 1 to Senate Bill 2203, Senate Draft 1, a measure before the body on third reading regarding law enforcement.
Rhodes said the amendment restores language "suggested by the Honolulu Police Department" that had been intended for the bill but was inadvertently omitted from the committee report. "This puts it back in the bill," Rhodes said when moving the amendment. Senator Tulsi Gabbard seconded the motion; no objections were recorded and the amendment was adopted.
Following adoption, the presiding officer announced that 48-hour notice is given for third reading of SB2203 SD2, a routine step that schedules the bill for the next procedural stage.
Rhodes framed the amendment as a technical restoration of previously agreed language rather than a new policy change. No vote tally was recorded on the floor; the chair announced adoption after asking for objections.
