The Georgia House moved multiple measures through the chamber during its rules calendar, adopting committee substitutes and recording roll-call results on several bills.
House Bill 1191, presented by Representative Angie Osteen, would expand eligibility for special veteran license plates to include additional military medal awards. The clerk announced the roll-call result as yays 170, nays 0; the bill received the constitutional majority and was recorded as passed.
House Bill 1192, presented by Representative Darlene Taylor, would change certain accounting practices and reporting requirements for the Department of Human Services and the Department of Community Health to improve transparency of federal and state funds; the reported vote was yays 170, nays 0 and the bill passed.
House Bill 1195, presented by Representative Rob Leverett, revises provisions governing veterinary telemedicine and veterinary tele-triage to preserve the operation of poison-control and telemedicine services for animal health. After questions on workforce and scope, the committee substitute was adopted and the roll-call vote was announced as yays 172, nays 0; the bill passed.
Other bills were called in first and second reading across subject areas including education, taxation, local government and public safety; committee reports were read and numerous items were advanced to the next stage. The clerk read a long list of first-read and second-read captions during the rules calendar.
Separate from these votes, the House debated House Bill 717 (ketamine clinics) later in the day and the bill failed on a roll call (see separate coverage).
