Appropriations Committee tables four AI-related bills in a single block

The Appropriations Committee on the General Government Capital Outlay subcommittee voted to table four bills related to artificial intelligence by a 5-0 vote.

Delegate Reid moved that the committee table the four measures — House Bill 669, House Bill 713, House Bill 999 and House Bill 1514 — "saying at this particular point in time, the most appropriate measure is to table those." The committee approved tabling the four bills as a single block after a roll call vote that returned a 5-0 tally.

The tabling was handled as a block motion and recorded as a committee action; the chair restated the block prior to the vote. No substantive floor debate on the individual bills was recorded in the committee minutes.

The committee proceeded to other agenda items after the vote and adjourned later in the session.
