Chair refers bills; motion to adjourn carries, House to reconvene June 28

The House of Representatives adjourned after a brief floor session on June 26, 2026, after the chair reported a motion by Representative Dougherty to recess the chamber until Sunday, June 28, 2026, at 12 p.m., unless recalled earlier by the Speaker.

The chair opened the session by saying, "Prayer and pledge will be dispensed with for today." The chair then announced that, without objection, approval of the journal from Friday, June 26, 2026, would be postponed until it is printed. The chair next stated that referrals were entered for June 26, 2026, and directed the clerk to read them; the clerk recited a referral line as read on the floor: "House bill 26 75 to finance." The transcript does not provide further detail about the bill's subject or committee assignment beyond the referral line.

The chair said the chamber was "in receipt of a motion by the gentleman, Representative Dougherty, that the House now adjourn until Sunday, June 28 at 12 noon unless sooner recalled by the Speaker." The motion was put to a voice vote; the chair called for ayes and noes and declared, "The ayes have it, and the House stands adjourned until Sunday, June 28, 2026, at noon, unless sooner recalled by the Speaker." The transcript records the result as a voice vote; no numerical tally or roll-call was provided.

The House is scheduled to reconvene Sunday, June 28, 2026, at 12 p.m., unless the Speaker recalls the chamber sooner.
