House committee gives favorable report to HB586 cleanup amendment
Summary
A House committee approved an amendment to House Bill 586 described on the record as a technical cleanup (Document DGE78HTDash1) and issued a favorable report by voice vote; the amendment removes a name and other minor revisions.
A House committee on Thursday gave a favorable report to House Bill 586 after approving an amendment described on the record as a technical cleanup.
The presenter (transcript label "Presenter") told the committee that the amendment would remove a name and make a few other minor edits. On the record the amendment was identified as "Document number is DGE78HTDash1," the presenter said. A motion to report the bill favorably "as amended" was made, seconded and approved by voice vote.
The amendment was described in committee as housekeeping rather than a substantive policy change. Committee members did not raise substantive objections on the floor during the exchange; the chair (transcript label "Chair") conducted the voice vote, saying, "All in favor, say aye," to which members responded.
The committee's favorable report sends the bill forward for the next procedural step. Vote counts were recorded by voice on the record and no numeric tally was provided in the transcript.
