Committee items and other bills reported for further floor action

In addition to the votes above, the committee reported out dozens of bills from standing committees (committee reports were adopted at the start of the day). Examples included bills reported by the standing committees on energy, state administration, public health and local government; those committee reports list many bills recommended to pass or pass as amended (see the committee report section of the transcript). Several House bills were also transmitted to the Senate with concurrence recommendations.

Notes on the record and next steps: Many of these bills were discussed briefly on the floor or in the Committee of the Whole; where fuller debate occurred (for example, S.B. 204, S.B. 266 and S.B. 359), separate articles detail the discussion. Each bill above will proceed through the chamber’s third‑reading process under Senate rules.
