Loading...
Summary
The Colorado Senate voted by voice to lay over Senate Joint Resolution 014, which would declare Feb. 28, 2026, Rare Disease Day; the motion to delay consideration was made by Angelina Rodriguez and carried without a recorded roll-call tally.
Angelina Rodriguez (role not specified in the transcript) moved that Senate Joint Resolution 014 be laid over until Friday, 02/27/2026. "I move senate join resolution 14, layover until Friday, 02/27/2026," Rodriguez said. The presiding officer put the motion to a voice vote and declared the ayes to have it.
The resolution, introduced by Senators Kipp and Simpson and Representatives Garcia and Johnson, would declare 02/28/2026 as Rare Disease Day in Colorado. The bill title and sponsors were read into the record before the layover motion. The Senate record does not include a roll-call or numerical vote tally; the motion was carried by voice vote and recorded as carried by the chair.
The motion sets further consideration for a later floor day; the motion as recorded set a layover date of Feb. 27, 2026, which is the day before the calendar date named in the resolution. The transcript does not explain that discrepancy. The resolution remains pending and will be taken up again per the Senate's schedule.
