Senate reads and signs supplemental appropriations substitute for House Bill 20-14

The Senate clerk read aloud the Senate substitute for the Senate committee substitute for House Bill 20-14, described in the record as an act to appropriate money for supplemental purposes across state departments and programs. No senator objected to reading the bill at length, and the presiding officer noted "no objections being made" and that the bill was signed "to the end that it may become law."

The clerk27s entry identifies the bill as a supplemental appropriations measure covering "expenses, grants, refunds, and distributions of the several departments and offices of state government and the several divisions and programs thereof." The floor proceeding contains no substantive debate on that text in the transcript provided; the bill was read and certified for signature on the Senate floor.

The reading and signing indicate the Senate27s procedural steps to finalize the bill after both chambers passed it. The transcript does not include detail about line items or amounts in the bill; the clerk read the bill title and the presiding officer acknowledged no objections and directed the signature.
