The Senate Committee on Border Security voted 4-1 to report House Bill 180 to the full Senate with a recommendation that it do pass and be printed.

The action advanced the measure to the Senate after a roll call vote recorded in committee. Senator Bergwel moved that House Bill 180, sponsored in the House by Representative Guillen, be reported to the full Senate with a recommendation that it do pass and be printed. The clerk called the roll and the committee recorded four ayes and one nay.

Senator Birdwell voted “Aye.” Senator Flores voted “Aye.” Senator Hinojosa (Hidalgo) voted “Aye.” Senator Eckhart voted “No.” Senator Hinojosa (Nueces) voted “Aye.” The clerk stated the tally as four ayes and one nay and said the bill would be favorably reported to the Senate; the committee noted the measure was not eligible for local consideration.

The transcript contains no substantive debate or amendments on the bill; the committee completed the roll call and then recessed subject to the call of the chair.
