Summary
The Rules Committee approved a rules substitute to House Bill 1178 (LC59409S) adding the House Appropriations chair to the Budget and Fiscal Affairs Oversight Committee, agreed to recommit House Bill 1095 to Regulated Industries, and moved a slate of bills and resolutions onto a supplemental calendar for further consideration.
The Rules Committee met and handled routine procedural business, approving a rules substitute to House Bill 1178, recommitting House Bill 1095 to Regulated Industries, and placing a slate of bills and resolutions on a supplemental calendar.
Secretary Kelly explained the substitute to House Bill 1178, LC59409S, saying, "We have a rules committee substitute... We are simply adding the chairman of the House Committee on Appropriations as a member of the Budget and Fiscal Affairs Oversight Committee. That's the only change that we're making." The committee then moved and seconded approval of the substitute with no recorded objection.
Separately, a motion was made to recommit House Bill 1095 to Regulated Industries; the motion received a second and the chair announced, "It's back in regulated industries."
Under the supplemental calendar motion, the committee repeatedly moved and seconded placement of numerous bills and resolutions for further consideration. Items called onto the supplemental calendar included (as read at the meeting) House Bill 11 28; House Bill 11 29; House Bill 11 33; House Bill 11 78 (rule substitute LC59409S); House Bill 12 11; House Bill 12 47; House Bill 12 76; House Bill 12 95; House Bill 13 03; House Bill 13 65; House Bill 13 68; House Bill 13 74; House Bill 13 79; House Resolution 12 43; and House Resolution 14 16. Most motions were taken without recorded objections; for at least one item a member voiced an objection and the chair called for a voice vote, later saying, "The ayes have it." The committee closed by reminding members of a follow-up meeting scheduled for 11:00 a.m. the next day.
The meeting record reflects procedural approvals and calendar placement rather than detailed debate on specific policy provisions. No substantive amendments or final floor actions on the listed bills were recorded during this session; the actions taken route the bills for further consideration under committee rules.
