Votes at a glance: March 6 Idaho House — multiple bills passed, sent to Senate
Summary
The House cleared a bundle of routine and code-cleanup bills and moved several items to the Senate on March 6. Notable floor actions included approvals of assorted code repeals and housekeeping bills; several items were placed on the third-reading calendar.
During the March 6 floor session the Idaho House considered and acted on a collection of bills in addition to major floor debates. Many measures were passed by voice vote or recorded roll calls and sent to the Senate or placed on subsequent calendars.
Key procedural outcomes recorded on the floor include: passage and transmittal to the Senate for House Bill 6-74 (streamlining PUC review when the FCC has approved discontinuance); passage of housekeeping and code-repeal measures (e.g., House Bill 5-66, House Bill 5-68, House Bill 7-74) that repeal outdated statutory sections or adjust administrative code; placement of multiple bills on the third-reading calendar for further consideration (House Resolution 25, House Bills 6-38, 7-65, 7-66, 7-67, 7-97, 6-72, 7-85, and others). Many of these actions were carried by voice vote or unanimous consent, with titles approved and bills ordered transmitted to the Senate.
The House also resolved into Committee of the Whole to consider general orders and reported multiple bills back without recommendation or with amendments for further action.
These procedural votes clear the way for subsequent committee work and Senate consideration; members noted several committee meetings and schedules for the following week to advance maintenance and enhancement bills and other matters.
