Committee recommends dozens of measures en bloc by unanimous vote
Summary
After individual reviews the committee moved and recommended a mass package of bills and senate concurrent memorials; counsel said each measure had been reviewed and the package passed by an 8–0 roll call.
At the end of the meeting a committee member moved a mass motion listing dozens of Senate bills and several senate concurrent memorials, asking members to recommend all listed measures as constitutional and in proper form.
Tim Fleming confirmed the Rules Attorney's Office had reviewed the listed measures and advised the committee that, in the office's opinion, each was constitutional and in proper form. The secretary then called the roll and the committee voted unanimously, 8 ayes and 0 nays, to recommend the mass package. The meeting was adjourned shortly thereafter.
The transcript lists many bill numbers included in the mass motion; the record of this meeting contains only the committee’s recommendation and does not record debate or detailed analysis for the individual bills in the package.
