The Vermont House Committee on Commerce & Economic Development voted to report favorably on draft 5.1 of SG13 during its April 23, 2026 meeting. The motion to report the draft favorably was moved and seconded; Rep. Duncan is recorded in the transcript as seconding the motion. The clerk was asked to record the action.
A voice/roll-call recorded yes votes from Rep. Bosch, Rep. Booten, Rep. Duncan, Rep. Cooper, Rep. Duke, another representative recorded in the transcript as “Granny” (name unclear), Rep. Nicholas, Rep. Olsen, Rep. Priestley, Rep. White and Rep. Mark; the motion was approved. The transcript does not name a mover for the motion.
Committee members described SG13 during the exchange as short (about 16 pages) and generally noncontroversial; members agreed it was straightforward enough for the committee to report the bill favorably. The group discussed who would record the action for the record; a member suggested that “Mike” do so, but the person identified as Mike declined.
The committee moved on to other business after completing the vote.
