Votes and actions: Committee records concurrence in assembly amendments for SB226 and SB594

At the hearing the committee recorded vocal concurrence in the assembly amendments for both SB226 (sponsor: Senator Cabaldon) and SB594 (sponsor: Senator Padilla). For each bill the clerk reported 'aye' responses during a vocal roll call; the transcript records multiple senators saying 'aye' and notes the bills "remain on call" for clerking.

Specific procedural steps recorded in the hearing:

- SB226: Sponsor requested an eye vote to concur in the assembly amendments. The clerk called responses; multiple senators were recorded saying 'aye' and the chair stated the bill was on call. The committee later reconvened and the clerk filed the item.

- SB594: After sponsor and witness testimony and committee questioning about tribal data and sovereignty, Senator Laird moved concurrence in the assembly amendments. The clerk recorded vocal 'ayes' and the bill remained on call for clerking and filing.

The transcript records vocal 'aye' responses but does not provide consistent, formal numeric tallies for all voice votes; clerking entries in the transcript include shorthand like '4 0' or '6 0' in places but the record of exact, formal tallies is not consistently provided in the audio transcript text. The committee adjourned after thanking witnesses and the public.
