Committee approves consent calendar, advances several sunset bills
Summary
The House Government Operations Committee approved a 10-item consent calendar and advanced multiple sunset and routine bills to next committees, including a move of HB1631 to Finance and HB1563 to Calendar and Rules.
The House Government Operations Committee opened its March 2 session by approving a 10-item consent calendar that contained mostly standard sunset bills. Chair (speaker S1) said the calendar had been circulated and, after a motion and second, Clerk (S2) recorded the vote as "11 ayes and 0 nays," giving the items a positive recommendation.
Among items advanced, HB1631 (renaming and reorganizing the Tennessee state fair authority) moved to the Finance, Ways and Means Committee after a 12–0 committee vote. HB1563, extending the Board of Optometry, passed unanimously and moved to Calendar and Rules. The chair noted that HB1443 had been rolled one week and HB1901 was taken off notice earlier in the agenda.
The committee handled the consent calendar and the routine sunset bills with little debate, reserving longer discussion for several other measures later in the meeting.
