Utah House moves to consider hearing Gov. Cox after brief procedural exchange

Representative Moss moved on the House floor "that the house resolve into a committee of the whole for the purpose of hearing from governor Cox," pressing a procedural step to allow the governor to speak to members.

The motion was followed by a brief procedural exchange in which a member apologized for a misread of the agenda sheet and Representative Romero later said, "I move that the house dissolve the committee of a whole of the whole." A chamber member responded, "Oh, we gotta wait until after the governor," indicating members saw a sequencing or timing conflict. The transcript records no vote or formal disposition of either motion.

The discussion occurred as the House signaled it was preparing to adjourn 'Senate day,' suggesting members were wrapping up a schedule that included Senate-related business. The brief back-and-forth was procedural rather than substantive; no policy debate, amendments or votes on legislation appear in the provided transcript.

The immediate next steps are not recorded in the excerpt. The motions recorded in the transcript — to resolve into a committee of the whole to hear the governor and to dissolve that committee — were introduced but not resolved within the available segments.
