Committee opens; consent calendar approved after two bills removed
Summary
The State and Local Government Committee opened its April 8 session, removed two bills from its consent calendar and approved the remaining consent items by voice vote, sending multiple bills on to calendar rules and other committees.
The State and Local Government Committee convened April 8 and immediately addressed the consent calendar. The chair asked members to log in to the electronic voting system and identified problems with the calendar; without objection, the chair announced that House Bill 2661 and House Bill 1465 would be taken off the consent calendar and the rest would proceed. "Without objection, House Bill 2661 and 14 65 will be taken off the consent calendar," the chair said.
Clerk staff reported the roll-call result for the consent vote: "you have 20 ayes and 1 present not vote," and the chair directed that the approved bills go to calendar rules. The committee then proceeded through dozens of agenda items, using placed amendments and roll calls to send bills to the appropriate next steps.
