Summary

Senator Harkins said the governor's State of the State address will be Feb. 4 at 5:00 p.m. in the rotunda and clerks and committee chairs outlined a series of committee meetings and hearings for the coming days, including Appropriations subcommittee sessions at 2:45 p.m.

Senator Harkins, speaking for the Governor's office, announced that the State of the State address has been moved to Feb. 4 at 5:00 p.m. in the rotunda. The scheduling announcement was made during routine business and followed procedural votes to dispense with readings of the journal and committee reports.

Clerks and committee chairs then reviewed multiple committee meeting times. Senator McCaughn reminded members that Appropriation Subcommittee No. 11 will begin hearings at 2:45 p.m. today. Senator Bridal said the Public Health and Welfare Committee will meet twice this afternoon, at 2:50 p.m. and again at 3:00 p.m. in Room 216 so a short item and another matter that requires testimony can both be handled. The clerk (Clark) summarized additional meetings: Appropriations Subcommittee No. 5 at 8:15 a.m. Wednesday, Technology at 9 a.m. Wednesday, and Rules at 9:30 a.m.

The announcements were procedural and provided dates, times, and rooms for members and the public planning to follow committee work. No substantive floor debate or votes on legislation were recorded in this session.
