The Vermont House completed third reading and concurrence votes on a set of bills and adopted several resolutions during its May 1, 2024 floor session.
Key outcomes: H.27 (coercive controlling behavior; House concurred in the Senate proposal of amendment), H.649 (truth and reconciliation commission amendments; House concurred), H.885 (approval of amendment to the charter of the town of Berlin; bill passed), H.886 (approval of amendments to the charter of the City of South Burlington; bill passed), HR 18 (House resolution calling on Franklin County Sheriff John Grismore to resign; resolution adopted), S.58 (public safety; passed in concurrence), S.120 (postsecondary schools and a redacted term described in the transcript as "****** misconduct protections"; passed in concurrence), S.184 (temporary use of automated traffic law enforcement systems; passed in concurrence), S.186 (systemic evaluation of recovery residences and recovery communities; passed in concurrence), and S.196 (types of evidence permitted in "weight of the evidence" hearings; passed in concurrence).
Most measures were decided by voice votes, with the presiding officer declaring the ayes to have it where recorded. Several items (H.27 and H.649) were explained on the floor by committee proponents who summarized the Senate amendments and reasons for concurrence. HR 18 was adopted after third reading; the resolution calls for the resignation of Franklin County Sheriff John Grismore.
The House completed the orders of the day and held a series of floor announcements before adopting a motion to adjourn until Thursday, May 2, 2024 at 1:00 PM.
