Legislative Council ratifies chair's sanctioning of charitable events

The Legislative Council ratified events the chair had previously approved, after a brief discussion verifying that beneficiary organizations hold 501(c)(3) nonprofit status.

Senator Giesel moved and asked unanimous consent that the council ratify the chair's sanctioning of the listed charitable events. Chair Hannan objected initially to permit discussion and noted that the 501(c)(3) status of the beneficiary organizations had been verified; she then removed her objection and the events were ratified.

The items listed in the meeting record (as transcribed) include "Sham Jam 2 20 26," "SEA GLA fundraiser," and "Legislative Skits Big Brothers Big Sisters Aware Fundraiser." The record reflects the council ratified the chair's prior administrative approvals and no roll-call vote was required once the chair removed her objection.
