Committee advances SB 265, sponsor present but no public testimony
Summary
Senator Matt Klayman introduced SB 265 (criminally negligent homicide / failure to assist) April 21; after no public testimony the committee voted to report the bill from committee with individual recommendations and an accompanying fiscal note, with Senator Greg Jackson moving the report.
On April 21 the Senate Community & Regional Affairs Committee received an introduction of Senate Bill 265, a measure described by staff for Senator Matt Klayman (Senate District H). Klayman's staff said the senator was available to answer questions; committee members asked none and the chair opened public testimony, receiving no in‑room or online comments.
Senator Greg Jackson moved "Senate Bill 265 ... from committee with individual recommendations and accompanying fiscal note and authorize legislative legal to make conforming changes." With no objection, the motion carried and SB 265 was reported from committee. The committee paused briefly to sign paperwork.
Why it matters: The committee action advances SB 265 to the next legislative step with individual recommendations and a fiscal note attached; the hearing did not include substantive debate or public input.
The committee took no further testimony on the measure at this meeting.
