On the floor: House adopts HCR 2 and several resolutions en bloc; adjournment motion recorded
Summary
In a brief floor session the Mississippi House adopted HCR 2 (113-0), took three House resolutions en bloc, and passed House Bill 1 after adopting a qualifying-deadline amendment; a motion to adjourn was made but the transcript cuts off before the final result is recorded.
The Mississippi House adopted several measures in a session that included procedural votes and short announcements.
The House gave final passage to House Concurrent Resolution No. 2; the clerk recorded a vote of 113 yays and 0 nays, and the Speaker announced the resolution's adoption.
The Chairman of the Rules called up House Resolutions 1, 4 and 5 and asked that they be considered en bloc. With no objections and no requests to set any aside, the body adopted those three resolutions together by voice vote.
Later the House considered other calendar business and took a recorded roll-call on House Bill 1, which passed 116-0 after members adopted a technical amendment that adjusts candidate qualifying deadlines for a restored chancery-court seat in Grenada County (see separate item for full detail).
Representative Morgan moved that the House adjourn until 9 a.m. tomorrow; the Speaker called for the ayes and noes, but the provided transcript ends mid-announcement ('The ayes'), so the transcript does not record the final disposition of the adjournment motion.
