The North Dakota House of Representatives voted to pass House Bill 1003, a measure providing appropriations and statutory changes affecting the attorney general's office and related programs; the final recorded vote was 74 yea, 12 nay.

House Bill 1003, as described on the floor, would provide an appropriation to defray the expenses of the attorney general and would amend and reenact sections of the North Dakota Century Code related to witness compensation and mileage, the attorney general's salary, 24/7 sobriety program fees, and the tobacco settlement trust fund; the engrossed bill also includes provisions for a report and a fund transfer and an exemption.

The bill was introduced on the eleventh order of business with proposed amendments from the Appropriations Committee. Representative Nathan, speaking on the floor, asked members for a "green vote," saying, "You heard the conference report yesterday. I asked for a green vote, so I don't do not have to talk about this anymore. So please vote green." The clerk opened the electronic voting key for final consideration; after members voted the clerk recorded the tally and the chief clerk declared the bill passed.

No additional implementation steps or effective dates for provisions are recorded in the floor excerpt. The transcript identifies the statutory sections to be amended but does not specify dollar amounts or line-item figures in the spoken floor summary.
