Senate to hold state funeral for former Sen. Robert Klitzky; adopts agenda and waives multiple items
The Senate on April 14, 2025, adopted its legislative-session agenda, delayed or waived several agenda items and resolved into the Committee of the Whole to conduct a state funeral service for the late former Sen. Robert Klitzky.

Majority Leader Sen. Luhan moved to adopt the legislative-session agenda dated April 14, 2025; the motion was made and, after the clerk called the roll, carried without objection. The majority leader subsequently moved to delay agenda items 2 through 5 and to waive agenda item 6; both motions carried after the chair asked for objections and none were raised. Later in the session the majority leader moved to waive agenda items 8 through 13 and, separately, agenda items 15 through 19; both motions carried with no objections recorded.

The clerk recorded a quorum after roll call. The transcript shows the clerk announcing the presence of Vice Speaker Adam and several senators, including Sen. Barnett, Sen. Borja, Sen. Duenas, Sen. Lujan and others, before the body proceeded with additional procedural motions.

The majority leader also moved to excuse senators not present for the session; that motion carried with no objection. The body voted to append Resolution 40-38 COR to the session journal; the motion to append the resolution carried after the chair called for objections and none were voiced.

Finally, the majority leader moved that the Senate resolve into the Committee of the Whole for the purpose of conducting the state funeral service for the late Hon. Robert Klitzky, former senator, “and that it be conducted in its formal manner.” The motion carried with no objection. The Senate stood in recess and announced it would reconvene promptly at 10 a.m.

No roll-call tallies with individual yes/no votes were recorded in the transcript for these motions; each action was adopted after the chair asked for objections and none were raised. The session’s proceedings in the transcript are primarily procedural and do not record debate on substantive legislation during the excerpt provided.
