Votes and actions: committee advances HB 935 and HB 913 to the Senate floor
Summary
At the March committee hearing the panel advanced House Bill 935 (licensing consolidation) and House Bill 913 (Medicaid work requirements) to the floor with due-pass recommendations; HB 935 passed on a 4-3 roll-call; HB 913 was approved after a failed substitute motion to send to amending order.
The Senate Health and Welfare Committee recorded two formal committee-level actions on March 6.
House Bill 935: After public testimony and debate, the committee accepted a substitute motion to send HB 935 to the full Senate with a due-pass recommendation. The roll-call was recorded as 4 in favor, 3 opposed and 2 absent. Motion moved by Senator Lenny and seconded by Senator Harris; earlier in the sequence Senator Blaylock had moved to hold the bill.
House Bill 913: The committee debated whether to require a one-month or three-month look-back for verifying community engagement. Senator Shippey moved to send HB 913 to the floor with a due-pass recommendation; a substitute motion by Senator Wintrow to send the bill to the 14th order for amendment (to replace three months with one month) failed. The committee then passed the motion sending HB 913 to the floor with a due-pass recommendation; the transcript records requests for a recorded vote but does not list a final roll-call tally in the hearing transcript.
Members and staff should consult committee minutes and the Senate journal for the official roll-call records and any fiscal notes or amendments filed after the hearing.
