Summary
The Senate Committee on Government Operations placed calendar item 9007 (a reporting-requirement bill) on notice and indicated concurrence with a House amendment that incorporates a fix to language from a vetoed sister-state bill; the committee recorded a show-of-hands concurrence but no roll-call tally was given in the transcript.
The Senate Committee on Government Operations put calendar item 9007 (a reporting-requirement bill) on notice on May 22 and discussed a House amendment that integrates language removed from a governor-vetoed sister-state bill.
A committee member explained the amendment takes the previously vetoed provision and places the acceptable parts into the reports bill. The chair said committee members should review the nine‑trade amendment over the weekend and that the committee could concur with the House proposal so the reporter could defend it on the floor Tuesday. The committee indicated concurrence by a show of hands; the transcript records the chair saying a show-of-hands indicated concurrence but does not record a named mover, a second, or a roll-call vote.
The chair noted floor logistics and offered options for reporters and floor presentation. Senators also discussed scheduling for next week’s sessions and the legislative slideshow that accompanies bills. The committee did not record additional formal votes on the amendment in the transcript and adjourned.
