House Health Committee advances House Resolution 7 to next calendar after brief procedural exchange
Summary
The House Health Committee moved House Resolution 7 to the next calendar after Representative Hill made a motion and members voted by voice; the committee confirmed a quorum of 21 before proceeding.
Chairman White called the House Health Committee to order and the clerk reported, “Mister chairman, you have 21 members present. You have a quorum.” Representative Hill moved to place House Resolution 7 on final calendar number 2.
A member noted that while there had been a vote on an objection, the motion to move the resolution itself had not yet been decided; the chair agreed the motion was debatable and briefly recessed to allow the clerk to attend. After the recess, a previous question was called and seconded and the committee held a voice vote. The chair declared, “Ayes have it,” and the resolution was advanced to the second calendar.
The action was procedural: the committee moved the resolution forward on the calendar rather than voting on the resolution's substantive content. No final vote on the resolution's merits was recorded in the transcript.
