Votes at a glance: Senate passes multiple bills in concurrence and orders several third readings
Summary
On the May 21 floor the Senate passed several house bills in concurrence (H550, H841, H932, H937, H938 among others), concurred in house amendments on multiple measures, and ordered third readings for several bills including H527, H902, H757 and H817.
The Senate processed a large number of calendar items on May 21. Highlights of roll call or voice‑vote outcomes announced on the floor: H550 (gender equity in correctional facilities) was passed in concurrence; H841 (animal welfare procedures) passed in concurrence with a proposal of amendment; H932 (forestry regulation under Act 250) passed in concurrence with a proposal of amendment after floor clarifications; H937 (miscellaneous judiciary procedures) passed in concurrence with a proposal of amendment; and H938 (Vermont homelessness response continuum) passed in concurrence with a proposal of amendment.
The Senate also proposed committee amendments to the House and ordered third reading for multiple bills, including H527 (30 V.S.A. § 248a sunset and procedures), H902 (City of Barrie charter amendments), H757 (manufactured homes), and H817 (mental‑health literacy and peer supports in schools). Several items were passed over for later consideration and one bill (H928) was postponed with the intention to return to it tomorrow.
Where votes or tallies were given on record in committee reports or during floor explanations, reporters should consult committee documents or the calendar page cited on the floor for exact vote counts; floor voice votes were announced as "the ayes have it" without roll‑call tallies for most items.
The Senate suspended rules to message these actions to the House and adjourned until 10:00 AM Friday, 05/22/2026.
