Senate votes to place Human Trafficking Awareness Month resolution on tomorrow's consent calendar
Summary
Leader Johnson moved to suspend the rules and place Senate Joint Resolution 543, which designates January as Human Trafficking Awareness Month, on tomorrow's consent calendar; the motion carried without objection on the floor.
Leader Johnson told the chamber he had a Senate Joint Resolution (SJR543) that passed the judiciary committee and would designate January as Human Trafficking Awareness Month. "I have a senate joint resolution 5 43, which passed out of the judiciary committee, yesterday. It is a resolution that designates January as human trafficking awareness month, and, we would like to get it passed in January and get it over to the house," he said.
He moved to suspend the rules so the resolution could be placed on tomorrow's consent calendar; the presiding officer asked whether there was objection and, receiving none, the rules were suspended and the resolution was set for placement on tomorrow's consent calendar. No member objected during the floor exchange.
