Committee recommends HF 35‑21 to General Register after technical amendment

Representative Beck moved House File 35‑21 before the committee and said MDH findings support adding 84 beds for regions. Representative Liebling asked for clarification and staff confirmed the change was a technical amendment (e.g., correcting a Roman numeral). The committee voted by voice to recommend the bill to be placed on the General Register as amended. The motion carried with no recorded roll call.

The action was procedural: the bill was laid over for placement on the General Register rather than sent to another policy committee. No further testimony was taken during today’s session.
