Committee of the Whole reports SB1215 do pass as amended after adoption of judiciary and floor amendments

The Committee of the Whole on June 17 reported that Senate Bill 1215 do pass as amended after the adoption of a judiciary amendment and a subsequent floor amendment. Representative Wynne moved the committee recommendations and the amendments were adopted on the floor; the committee then rose and reported the bill with a do-pass recommendation.

On the floor, the committee on Judiciary had recommended SB1215 to pass as amended. Representative Wynne moved adoption of the Judiciary Committee amendment and moved a floor amendment in Representative Hendricks’ name; members approved both amendments by voice vote. The Committee of the Whole then rose and sent SB1215 as amended forward with a do-pass recommendation.

Later in the session the Clerk reported that the Committee of the Whole recommended SB1215 do pass as amended and that House concurrent resolutions HCR2020 and HCR2047 be retained on the calendar. The House approved the committee report by voice vote and the Clerk was instructed to record the action; the transcript indicates SB1215 was ordered to engrossing but does not include the bill’s subject matter or the text of the amendments.

The transcript does not record roll-call tallies or further debate on the bill’s substance. Next steps are committee and floor processing for engrossing and any subsequent legislative stages; the timing of further action was not specified on the record.
