SUMMARY
Synopsis of House Resolution 1
House Resolution 1 amends House Rule 9-5-5 to require that the names of each member voting
yes, each member voting no, each excused member, and each member shown as absent be listed
on each committee report.
FISCAL IMPLICATIONS
In planning for the 2025 legislative session, committee reports in both chambers were modified
to include the information required in House Resolution 1. The expense has already been
incurred but is unknown. Any expense to update House Rules could be absorbed in the operating
budget for the House Chief Clerkâs office.
SIGNIFICANT ISSUES
The approval of House Resolution 1 will align with the current practices of identifying members
voting yes, no, excused and absent.
