The Michigan Senate on the floor advanced two committee-reported bills — Senate Bill 60, a bill to amend the Public Health Code, and Senate Bill 24, a bill to amend the Juvenile Diversion Act — to the order of third reading after the Committee of the Whole recommended both without amendment.

The advancement followed routine committee reporting. The secretary read the calendar items for SB 60 and SB 24 and the presiding officers noted “there are no amendments pending” to either bill; Senate leadership then moved both bills to third reading after there was no discussion on the floor.

The Committee of the Whole, chaired by Senator Chang, reported that the bills were considered and recommended passage without amendment. The secretary gave the formal committee report, and Senate leadership placed both measures on the calendar for third reading.

Alongside those committee actions, senators introduced a set of new measures. The Senate recorded first readings and referrals for Senate Bills 71 through 77 with the following brief descriptions and referrals as read into the record:
- Senate Bill 71: a bill to amend the Michigan Penal Code; referred to the committee on state rights, judiciary, and public safety (transcript read: “referred to the committee on stable rights judiciary and public safety”).
- Senate Bill 72: a bill to amend the Skilled Trades Regulation Act; referred to the committee on labor.
- Senate Bill 73: a bill to amend the Michigan Liquor Control Code of 1998; referred to the committee on regulatory affairs.
- Senate Bill 74: a bill to amend the Workers' Disability Compensation Act of 1969; referred to the committee on labor.
- Senate Bill 75: a bill to amend the Workers' Disability Compensation Act of 1969; referred to the committee on labor.
- Senate Bill 76: a bill to amend the Revised School Code; referred to the committee on appropriations.
- Senate Bill 77: a bill to amend the State School Aid Act of 1979; referred to the committee on appropriations.

The governor's office also transmitted several appointments; the secretary read names and the Senate referred the appointments to the committee on government operations. The transmitted appointees included nominees to the Michigan Dairy Market Program Committee (Timothy Hood, Amy Martin, Dwight Nash, Eric Blitch, Renee McCauley), the Electrical Administrative Board (Steven Brown), the Michigan Education Trust Board of Directors (Peter Provenzano, Brock Tessman), the Michigan Board of Optometry (Paul Hodge), and the Michigan Board of Veterinary Medicine (Lucretia Gruyere).

Senate attendance was announced at the start of the session: 29 members were present, constituting a quorum. The Senate adjourned with the clerk noting the chamber will reconvene on Wednesday, February 12, at 10 a.m.

Because the Committee of the Whole and committee reports moved both SB 60 and SB 24 forward without floor debate, each bill now awaits full consideration on third reading, where further debate or amendment could occur.
