During a lengthy floor session the House processed many concurrence-calendar items and recorded roll-call votes for third-reading and final passage. Notable measures declared passed included bills on childcare workforce and training, consumer protection, housing and affordable-housing provisions, natural-resources park passes and exemptions, apprenticeship requirements in public works contracts, and a range of county-specific license and fee adjustments.
