Summary
The committee adopted substitutes and reported several bills with recorded roll calls, including unanimous actions on some substitutes and 6‑3 reports on several bills; minutes were adopted by unanimous consent and the committee adjourned.
At its May 14 meeting the House Rules Committee adopted the minutes by unanimous consent and handled a series of substitutes and motions, recording roll calls for each action and reporting multiple bills to the House floor with recommendations.
Key outcomes recorded in committee minutes:
- Minutes: Representative DeBoer moved to adopt the May 14 minutes; the motion prevailed by unanimous consent.
- HB 54‑98 (H‑1 substitute): The committee adopted the H‑1 substitute (roll call recorded as 9 yays, 0 nays) and subsequently reported the bill with recommendation as substituted (6 yays, 3 nays).
