Committee approves two bills in executive session; several bills advanced for hearing
Summary
In executive session the House Committee on Children and Families voted to advance House Bill 17-92 (media literacy) and House Bill 17-70 (statute of limitations/time limits on abuse cases), both by unanimous voice/roll-call votes. Several other bills received full hearings and public testimony.
The House Committee on Children and Families approved two bills in executive session and scheduled further consideration for several others.
Chair Jones opened the session and called for a roll-call vote on House Bill 17-92, a Murphy media-literacy proposal. The motion to report the bill "do pass" carried by roll call, recorded as 15 yes and 0 no. The committee then voted to report House Bill 17-70 "do pass," again recording 15 yes and 0 no.
Both motions were handled without extended discussion and were recorded in open committee minutes. The committee then moved on to consider additional bills for public hearings, including House Bill 24-26 (parental rights), House Bill 24-18 (Missouri Crime Victims Fund), House Bill 30-77 (social media/Internet safety curriculum), and House Bill 18-19 ("Conrad's Law" concerning day-care nap safety).
The committee adjourned after the scheduled hearings and testimony.
Ending: The committee recorded the executive votes and proceeded to take public testimony on the bills listed above; no floor amendment or further committee action on HB17-92 or HB17-70 was recorded in the transcript of this session.
