A Finance and Taxation conference committee voted unanimously to rescind a Senate amendment and adopt the House version of a bill that includes a provision to remove a motor-vehicle excise tax exemption.

Senator Weber moved to rescind the Senate amendment and accept the House language; Representative Greenike seconded the motion. The clerk called a roll and the committee recorded a 6-0 vote in favor.

The decision follows brief discussion among committee members about the motor-vehicle excise tax exemption. Senator Weber said, “I think, yeah, we had talked about the last time that I think we were willing to go along with, to the House version that to not include, the, motor vehicle excise tax exemption. I think didn’t Yeah. We were willing to rescind that.” That statement framed the committee’s action to remove the Senate amendment on that point.

Chairman Anderson presided over the roll call. The vote was recorded as follows: Chairman Anderson — yes; Representative Olson — yes; Representative Greenike — yes; Madam Chair Powers — yes; Senator Weber — yes; Senator Wallen — yes. After the vote, committee members indicated the panel’s work on the conference item was complete and that the measure will be returned to the Senate for adoption of the agreed language.
