Committee moves LD 2034 to 'ought not to pass' after Department of Education recommendation

During the public hearing, Representative Michael Brennan read Department of Education testimony asking the committee to recommend LD 20‑34 'ought not to pass.' Representative Dodge moved that the committee proceed directly to work session on LD 20‑34; committee members debated briefly and then a motion that LD 20‑34 'ought not to pass' was made and adopted by the committee.

The committee did not produce a written report at the hearing; the record shows the Department of Education opposed advancing the bill as drafted and the committee responded with a motion adopting the Department’s recommendation.

Result: committee motion recorded as 'ought not to pass' on LD 20‑34; committee minutes will reflect the Department of Education’s written testimony and the committee's procedural vote.
