House Judiciary Committee sends youth-offender bill H642 to conference committee
Summary
A committee member moved and the chair seconded a request to form a committee of conference for H642; the chair said there was no opposition and suggested Karen, Ian and Tom Oliver as members.
A committee member moved Tuesday that H642, a youth-offender bill, be sent to a committee of conference, and the chair seconded the motion, advancing a path to reconcile differences with the Senate.
The move came during a meeting of the House Judiciary Committee on May 19. "So I move that we, have h 6 4 2, this version that's before us, go to a new made conference," the committee member said when making the motion. The chair provided the second.
The chair said the measure should be able to move quickly and indicated there appeared to be an understanding with the Senate over key points, describing the committee-of-conference route as the quickest path. After calling for those in favor to raise their hands, the chair said there was no opposition. The chair added, "We got 5," indicating five members had raised their hands in favor.
The chair also suggested that Karen, Ian and Tom Oliver serve on the conference committee to negotiate the bill.
The committee adjourned after the action. The chair noted additional items for the afternoon's schedule, including agenda item 99 and S193, and said they would attempt to gather testimony if time allowed.
