Senate adopts two consent calendars; memorializing resolutions pass without recorded opposition
Summary
Chairman Powers presented two consent calendars (memorializing and congratulatory resolutions); Consent Calendar No. 1 passed 32–0 and Consent Calendar No. 2 passed with 30 ayes and no recorded nays after one item was bumped back to calendar.
Chairman Powers presented Consent Calendar No. 1, moved for immediate consideration and adoption, and the clerk recorded 32 ayes and no nays; the calendar was declared adopted. For Consent Calendar No. 2 (memorializing and congratulatory resolutions), one item (HJR 759) was sent back to calendar at a member's request, and the remainder of the calendar was moved and adopted; the clerk recorded 30 ayes and no nays.
The floor proceeding recorded vote totals but did not list individual member roll-call names in the transcript for the consent calendar votes. Both consent calendars were adopted without further floor discussion.
