Summary
The Senate Finance Committee approved two consent calendars on Thursday, March 26: voting list 16 (alcohol bills) and voting list 17 (regular house bills), both described as identical to senate cross-files that had already passed the Senate unanimously.
The Senate Finance Committee met Thursday, March 26, and approved two consent calendars by unanimous voice votes, ending the committee’s voting session for the day.
Senator Hayes explained the first consent list, voting list 16, noting these were "consent calendar alcohol bills for which we, the committee and the senate has already passed the identical senate cross file unanimously," and presented them for approval. When the chair asked whether any items on the list would be troubling, Hayes said, "We did not put anything that you would have voted against on this list." Senator Kramer seconded the motion, and the chair recorded a unanimous vote in favor.
The committee then moved to the purple-sheet consent calendar, voting list 17. Hayes described that list as regular house bills with identical senate cross-files that had passed the Senate unanimously in the same form. The chair called for a vote, and the committee again approved the list unanimously.
