Summary

The Committee on Consent and House Procedural approved multiple house bills and resolutions largely on consent, and granted requests to use the House Chamber for several community events; one bill was moved off consent for legal review but later passed on the regular calendar.

The Committee on Consent and House Procedural approved a series of bills and resolutions during its meeting.

Chair Poucher moved several items to pass on consent, and the committee recorded unanimous consent votes on a number of measures, including motions recorded in the transcript as "house bill 32 79," "house bill 25 0 8," "house bill 25 86," and "house bill 19 63." For each, the chair called the roll and the committee recorded either a 7-0 or 6-0 vote in favor as recorded during the hearing.

Several chamber-use resolutions were also approved later in the meeting. House Resolution 4,125 (Representative Kim Smith) and other chamber-use requests were called and recorded as "do pass" votes. The committee recorded no opposition during those roll calls.

Chair Poucher noted that one substituted bill (house committee substitute for house bill 2 5 1 7) had lingering legal-definition questions that affected whether it belonged on the consent calendar; the chair moved that it be treated as "do pass, not consent" and the committee recorded a 6-0 vote to move it to the regular calendar.

The meeting concluded after the committee disposed of the day's items; the transcript records formal roll-call votes for each motion and the final adjournment.
