At a session of the Michigan Senate, senators introduced six bills and referred each to the appropriate committee, the secretary announced a quorum, motions were made to excuse several senators and the Senate recessed to the call of the chair.

The secretary announced, "Mister president, there are 32 members present. There is a quorum." That quorum preceded a series of bill introductions and procedural motions recorded on the Senate floor.

Senators offered the following bills and referrals as read on the floor: Senate Bill 87, "a bill to amend Michigan Liquor Control Code of 1998," and Senate Bill 88, "a bill to amend Michigan Liquor Control Code of 1998," were referred to the Committee on Regulatory Affairs. Senate Bill 89, "a bill to amend the Michigan Penal Code," and Senate Bill 90, "a bill to amend Corrections Code of 1953," were referred to the Committee on Civil Rights, Judiciary and Public Safety. Senate Bill 91, "a bill to amend Income Tax Act of 1967," was referred to the Committee on Finance, Insurance, and Consumer Protection. Senate Bill 92, a bill to amend the statute providing for classification of public roads, streets and highways, was referred to the Committee on Appropriations.

The secretary also read a transmission from the Office of the Auditor General: "the office of the auditor general has transmitted to the senate an report on internal control compliance and other matters of the state sponsored group insurance fund for the fiscal year ending 09/30/2024," and the transmission was referred to the Committee on Oversight. The secretary said informational communications are available on the session web and were referred to the secretary for the record.

On attendance and excusals, Republican Minority Floor Leader Senator Lowers moved, "I move that Senator Johnson be excused for the day and that Senators Lindsey and McBroom be temporarily excused." The transcript records the floor response, "That objection so ordered." Majority Floor Leader Senator Singh moved that Senators Geiss and Camloyer be excused; the transcript records the floor response, "With objection, so ordered."

Majority Floor Leader Singh moved that the Senate "stand at recess to the call of the chair," and the motion carried as recorded: "Without objection, the senate will stand at recess at the call of the chair." Later in the day the Senate again recessed at Singh's request until 2:30 p.m.; the clerk recorded, "Without objection, the senate will stand at recess until 02:30PM and the senate is at recess."

The session included multiple ceremonial introductions of visiting student groups from Evert High School and Napoleon Ezra Abbey School; those appearances occurred during periods when the Senate was in recess and did not alter the procedural record of bill introductions and referrals.

The actions taken on the floor during this sitting were procedural: first readings and committee referrals for introduced bills, referral of the Auditor General transmission to the Committee on Oversight, recorded excusal motions for members, and recesses at the chair's call. No floor debate on the merits of the bills or recorded roll-call votes on the measures were recorded in the provided transcript excerpt.

The Senate will send the introduced measures to the named committees for further consideration according to standard legislative process.
