Chairman Watson presented the rules committee report and the Senate adopted the committee's report and the chamber's temporary rules of order as permanent rules for the 114th General Assembly.
"Spread upon the member's desk is a report from the rules committee," Chairman Watson said and moved that the Senate adopt the report. The committee had previously adopted the report unanimously, Chairman Watson told the floor. The Senate adopted the report by voice vote.
Chairman Watson then moved that "the senate adopt the temporary rules of order for the 114th general assembly as the permanent rules of order for the 100 and 14th general assembly." Following the motion the clerk called for a roll call. The vote result was recorded: "Ayes, 32. No nays. Motion to adopt has prevailed." The transcript records no nays.
The adoption places the chamber's temporary procedures in effect as the Senate's governing rules for the stated session. No substantive changes to pending legislation were announced as part of the rules action.
