Subcommittee advances several bills, including securities registration and housekeeping measures
Summary
The subcommittee advanced a set of mostly non‑controversial bills and amendments, including a motion on securities registration (SB 496) and a housekeeping adjustment to state guarantee caps. An amendment on animal‑testing reporting was advanced by voice vote (recorded 4–2).
The House Commerce and Consumer Affairs subcommittee considered multiple additional agenda items after the SB 524 hearing and stakeholder testimony.
Representative Malleier moved that Senate Bill 496 (registration requirements for associations of broker‑dealers) "ought to pass." The clerk recorded seven 'I' votes on the motion and the subcommittee advanced the bill. The subcommittee also considered routine items including a housekeeping bill to raise the maximum amount of state guarantees (Senate Bill 525) and other finance and licensing measures; those items were treated as non‑controversial and the committee moved them forward.
Separately, the subcommittee held and counted a voice vote on amendment 1581 (animal‑testing reporting) and the transcript records a result of 4–2 in favor of advancing that amendment to the full committee for further consideration. Several other bills and amendments were discussed and scheduled for further work by staff and stakeholders.
