Senate passes S.329 on criminal procedures involving firearms after roll-call vote

The Senate voted to pass S.329, an act relating to criminal procedures involving firearms, after a requested roll call produced a 17–13 tally in favor of final passage.

The bill was read for third time and, when a roll call was requested, the clerk conducted the vote. The clerk announced 17 voting yes and 13 voting no and the presiding officer declared the bill passed.

The passage followed no amendments offered on the floor and brief procedural exchanges about readiness for the question and the roll-call process. The clerk read the vote and the chamber moved on to the next calendar item.

The final procedural step on the floor was taken without further debate, and Senate business continued with additional third readings and committee reports.
