Committee reconsiders and again reports CSSB 1856 favorably, 11–0

Senate Committee on Business & Commerce · April 24, 2025

Summary

After an initial adoption and favorable report, Sen. Brandon Creighton moved to reconsider the committee substitute for SB 1856, sent up an amended substitute, and the committee adopted the substitute and again reported CSSB 1856 favorably by an 11–0 vote.

Sen. Brandon Creighton first moved adoption of a committee substitute for SB 1856 and moved that SB 1856 do not pass but that CSSB 1856 be reported favorably; the motion carried 11–0. Later during the hearing he moved to reconsider the vote adopting the committee substitute, sent up a revised committee substitute, explained the differences for the record, and the committee adopted the new substitute. The committee again voted to report CSSB 1856 favorably by recorded vote 11–0 and recommended placement on the Local & Uncontested Calendar.

The minutes record the procedural steps—reconsideration, explanation of a new substitute, and two recorded favorable reports—without recording specific amendments or dissenting debate. Sen. Zaffirini later requested unanimous consent to be shown voting aye for CSSB 1856; without objection that request was granted.
