House approves multiple withdrawals from committee; several bills removed from consideration
Summary
Members moved to withdraw several house bills and a house joint resolution from committee and the full House (examples include HB 1651, HB 434, HB 1008, HB 1700 and HJR 709); some withdrawals were approved without objection, others carried objections on the record.
Under unfinished business, members moved to withdraw a series of bills from committee and from the House's consideration. Representative Miller moved to withdraw House Bill 1651 from committee and the House; the motion carried without objection. Other members, including Representative Reeves and Representative Stevens, moved to withdraw HB 434, HB 1008, HB 1700 and HB 1524; some of those motions were recorded "with objection." Representatives followed standard procedural practice to remove items from committee dockets or the floor calendar.
Those withdrawals change which items remain on the House calendar and which will be refiled or reconsidered later. No legislative text changes or policy merits were debated on the floor during the withdrawal motions. Members did not specify subsequent referral paths or timelines for reintroduction on the record.
