Summary

The State Government, Tribal Affairs & Elections Committee reported Major General Welch’s gubernatorial appointment with a recommendation for confirmation during its Feb. 7, 2025 executive session.

The State Government, Tribal Affairs & Elections Committee reported Major General Welch’s gubernatorial appointment (No. 9221) with a recommendation that the Senate confirm him.

For the record, Danielle Kreech, staff to the committee, noted the committee had already held a hearing on the appointment earlier in the week. The committee later moved and seconded a report recommending confirmation. The chair called for the voice vote, and the chair ruled that the appointment had received a confirmation recommendation "subject to signatures."

Committee members did not engage in extended debate on the appointment during the executive session and no roll-call tally was recorded in the transcript. The recommendation will be transmitted as the committee’s report to the full Senate for final action.
