Senate adopts amendment and passes House File 2200, sends bill to House
Summary
After substituting House File 2,200 for Senate File 21-38, the Senate adopted amendment 51-51 and voted 43–3 to pass House File 2,200; Senator Green requested immediate messaging of the bill to the House.
The Senate substituted House File 2,200 for Senate File 21-38 and, after adopting Senate amendment 51-51, passed the bill by a roll-call vote of 43 to 3.
Senator Green, the senator from Boone, described the amendment during opening remarks, saying amendment 51-51 "allows individuals who are not employees of any of the 3 tier businesses more flexibility to invest and has proper disclosures." After explaining the amendment, Green moved its adoption; the chair announced, "The ayes do have it, and the amendment is adopted." The body then returned to House File 2,200 as amended and Senator Green moved that the bill be read the last time and placed on its passage.
The secretary opened the voting system for final passage. Several senators were recorded voting in favor, including Senator Dre, Senator Alans, Senator Evans, Senator Westrich, Senator Webster, Senator Warmie and Senator Whitver; the roll-call result reported 43 ayes and 3 nays. The chair declared that the bill, having received a constitutional majority, had passed the Senate and that "the title is agreed to."
Following passage, Senator Green requested unanimous consent to withdraw Senate File 21-38 and to immediately message House File 2,200 to the House; the chair announced no objections and both requests were ordered.
