Senate adjourns to April 27 after brief opening and prayer
Summary
After a brief opening that included a prayer by Senator Shipley and approval of the journal, the presiding officer announced a voice vote to adjourn the Senate until Monday, April 27 at 1:00 p.m.; the voice vote prevailed and no tally was recorded in the transcript.
The Senate convened and the presiding officer called the session to order, announced a prayer and led members in the pledge of allegiance. The presiding officer announced that the prayer would be offered by the senator from Adams, Senator Shipley.
Senator Shipley offered the opening prayer, asking for blessings on the day’s work and for a safe return to finish business next week, closing, "We ask all this in Jesus' name, amen." After the prayer, the presiding officer asked for corrections to the journal; hearing none, the journal was approved as printed.
With no senators seeking leave or making announcements, the presiding officer recognized the senator from Wenatchee, Senator Klemish. Senator Klemish moved that the Senate adjourn until Monday, April 27 at 1:00 p.m. The presiding officer put the motion to a voice vote; members responded "aye," no "nay" was recorded in the transcript, and the presiding officer declared the motion prevailed. The presiding officer then announced that the Senate was adjourned until the stated date and time.
The transcript does not record a second to the motion or a roll-call tally; those details were not specified.
