House approves April 2 journal as corrected after brief floor exchange
Summary
The state House approved the journal for Thursday, April 2, 2026, as corrected by the chief clerk after Representative Woodrow moved to approve it and the presiding officer took a voice vote; the motion was adopted by the chair’s announcement.
Representative Woodrow moved that the journal of Thursday, 04/02/2026, "be approved as corrected by the chief clerk," saying he did so "reluctantly." The presiding officer called for a voice vote and declared the motion adopted after an exchange in which both "no" and "aye" calls were made.
The motion was procedural and required only a voice vote. Representative Woodrow, who introduced the motion, framed it as a routine correction to the journal and invited the chamber to approve the record. The presiding officer conducted the vote by voice and announced that the motion was adopted.
The approval of the journal completes a routine procedural step in the House’s business and does not change the substance of any bills; members moved next to announcements and committee scheduling.
