Calendar and Rules committee places multiple bills on today’s calendars with minimal debate

The Calendar and Rules committee convened, confirmed a quorum and proceeded through its agenda, placing multiple House bills and resolutions onto today’s regular and consent calendars with little or no debate.

Among the items the chair called were House Bill 1259, House Bill 1455, House Bill 1702, House Bill 1966, House Bill 2174, House Bill 2327, House Bill 2669, House Bill 2670, House Bill 2075, SJR0650, House Bill 2317 and SJR1022. Most items were seconded and recorded as placed on either today’s regular calendar 2 or the consent calendar 2 by voice votes. The committee also paused briefly while waiting for Representative Bridal to arrive and recorded a brief administrative note about canceling a 'silver alert' and a December study without additional action.

The session included routine attendance checks and occasional procedural prompts (for example, noting when a member was not present). After completing the calendar business and a roll-call on one senate bill, the chair adjourned the committee.

The actions recorded in the session were procedural calendar placements; the transcript did not record substantive debate, amendments, or referrals on the listed bills within the segments covering these items.
