Summary
On March 3 the House Judiciary, Rules & Administration Committee approved prior minutes, held HCR 23 and H 764 after substitute-motion votes, and advanced S 1232aa to the House floor with a do-pass recommendation.
The House Judiciary, Rules & Administration Committee convened March 3, approved the February 27 minutes by voice vote and took action on three substantive items.
HCR 23 (congressional term limits) was presented by Rep. Shirts; after testimony and committee questions a substitute motion to hold carried on a roll call (8 AYE, 7 NAY, 1 Absent/Excused). H 764 (penalties for concealing unauthorized immigrants), presented by Rep. Hawkins and Theo Wold, drew broad testimony from faith-based groups, nonprofits and law enforcement; the committee carried a substitute motion to hold (9 AYE, 7 NAY). S 1232aa, concerning criminal notoriety and proceeds, was presented by Rep. Price and moved to the floor with a DO PASS recommendation by Rep. Scott; that motion passed by voice vote and Rep. Price will sponsor the bill on the floor.
The minutes show roll-call details for the held measures and record the list of registered supporters and opponents for the two held items. The transcript records who testified and the committee's questions, but does not provide verbatim excerpts of witness statements in this minutes file.
