House adopts multiple committee reports, takes first reading of a senate bill and adjourns
Summary
The House processed dozens of standing committee reports, took a senate bill's first reading by title on a voice vote, and adjourned until noon the following day after a motion by Representative Morikawa.
The House moved through an extensive slate of standing committee reports, with members recording reservations and 'no' or 'no vote' positions on many items. Representative Garcia and others repeatedly placed reservations on several reports during consideration.
Earlier in the day the Clerk reported receipt of a senate bill that had passed third reading in the senate. Representative Morikawa moved that the senate bill lying on the clerk's desk pass first reading by title; Representative Garcia seconded and the motion carried on a voice vote.
Representative LaChica introduced two guests in the gallery, Melissa Pavlichek and Jake Gunn, who were invited to discuss potential initiatives to strengthen the education system. At the close of business Representative Morikawa moved, and Representative Garcia seconded, that the House stand adjourned until 12:00 noon the following day; the motion carried on a voice vote.
The transcript lists many standing committee report numbers and records numerous 'reservations' and individual members' 'no' votes or requests; the record in the transcript does not attach bill text or roll-call tallies to the standing committee report adoptions.
