Senate tables motion to reconsider Senate Bill 3,110
Summary
Senate Bill 3,110 (described in the transcript as relating to taxes for voluntary cash contributions to rural hospitals) was called up and Senator Harkins moved to table the motion to reconsider so sponsors could work on language; the motion carried on the floor.
Senate Bill 3,110 was called from the calendar and brought up for consideration. Senator Harkins explained the motion and moved to table a pending motion to reconsider so lawmakers could continue working on language. The sponsor noted that Senator Taylor was ill, which affected the immediate handling of the reconsideration motion.
On the floor, the presiding officer called for the ayes and declared the motion carried ('The ayes have it'), effectively tabling the motion to reconsider and leaving the bill in the posture described by the sponsor for further work.
The bill was described in the transcript as relating to tax treatment of voluntary cash contributions to rural hospitals; the transcript wording is uneven in places and records the text as: "Tax bridal divide against income or annual or in taxes for voluntary cash contributions to rural hospitals." The Senate did not record further floor action on this bill during the segment.
