On May 18 the Vermont Senate passed H907 on third reading, concurred with the House on S230 with a further amendment, referred S218 to Natural Resources, and ordered third readings for H740, H578 and H727 after committee reports and floor debate.
The Vermont Senate’s May 18 floor session included several procedural and substantive actions: H907 was passed on third reading; the Senate concurred with the House proposal of amendment on S230 with a further proposed amendment; S218 was recommitted to the Committee on Natural Resources and Energy; and the Senate ordered third readings of H740 (fuel‑data collection), H578 (animal‑cruelty updates) and H727 (sustainable data‑center deployment).
Presiding officer announcements opened the session and recognized pages and families. Early in the morning the body referred an appropriation matter and then handled a series of committee reports and floor interrogatories before recessed briefly to print an amendment.
