Summary: The Senate convened in special session with an opening prayer focused on Holocaust remembrance and a warning against antisemitism, followed by the Pledge of Allegiance and the reading of the joint proclamation calling the session. The proclamation said the special session was convened to consider immigration-related legislation and appropriations to support coordination with federal immigration enforcement, including a chief immigration officer, restrictions on benefits for undocumented immigrants, voting-related offenses, penalties for removed aliens who re-enter, bail and detention considerations, ID requirements, and support for local law enforcement. Senate Bill 2B on immigration was filed and placed on the special order calendar for the next day, with an amendment deadline set after the Appropriations Committee meeting. The Senate then took up veto overrides on House Bill 5001 from the 2024 regular session, which is the General Appropriations Act. Members discussed the governor’s vetoes of legislative support and transparency-related funding, including IT systems, research, oversight, and Florida Channel services. Senator Pizzo objected to waiving Rules on one item and argued the chamber should also address broader cuts, including arts funding, while the Rules Chair said the items under consideration were limited to support services and that broader funding concerns could be addressed separately. The Senate voted to override line item 2802, funding legislative support services, by 35 yeas and 1 name, and line item 2803, also for legislative support services, by 36 yeas and 1 nay, both passing by the required two-thirds vote. The Senate then adjourned until the next morning.

Summary: The House met in an adjourned session and began with the Pledge of Allegiance. The Speaker announced a special committee to escort Representative-elect Carol Doherty and Representative-elect Ann-Margaret Ferrante to be qualified by the Governor and Council. The main business was a series of organizational orders for the new General Court. The House adopted orders creating temporary House committees on Rules and on Ways and Means, each made up of members who served on those committees at the end of the previous General Court. Both temporary committees were authorized to meet jointly with their Senate counterparts and to carry out the duties of the permanent committees until permanent appointments are made. The House also adopted an order allowing the Council to the House of Representatives to perfect bills and resolves ordered to a third reading, or amended by the Senate, before the Committee on Bills in the Third Reading is appointed. Each of these orders required suspension of the rules, which was granted by voice vote. The House then adopted an order to adjourn until Thursday at 11 a.m., and finally adjourned to meet then in informal session.

The Committee on Steering and Policy then recommended five bills for House consideration: House Nos. 1068, 1641, 3417, 3438, and 4664. After suspension of Rule 7A, the House ordered all five bills to a third reading.

Committee: House Special Committee on Intergovernmental Affairs

Summary: The committee heard House Bill 2934, which would consolidate the St. Louis Convention and Visitors Commission and the Regional Sports Authority into a single reconstituted board to govern the Dome and Convention Center complex. The sponsor and supporters said the bill would modernize governance, clarify tax revenue use, and create a convention district funding structure without imposing new general taxes on residents or businesses. Testimony emphasized the facilities’ economic impact, including about $205 million annually, roughly 120 full-time jobs and over 4,000 part-time jobs, and support from Explore St. Louis, hotel interests, the RSA, St. Charles County, and Greater St. Louis, Inc. Committee members asked detailed questions about board representation, ownership, liens, and the proposed sales tax and special assessment tools; supporters said the taxes would apply only within the district, be capped, and be used for maintenance and operations. No opposition testimony was offered. The committee then heard House Bill 2559, the REINS Act, which would require affirmative legislative approval for administrative rules with fiscal notes over $250,000 before they could take effect. The sponsor and an Americans for Prosperity witness argued that major rules should not become binding without a vote of elected lawmakers, especially after Missouri’s recent move away from judicial deference to agencies. They said the bill would strengthen checks and balances, with emergency rules and rules needed for federal compliance exempted. Members questioned the $250,000 threshold, how it would work procedurally, and whether agencies might try to avoid the trigger; the sponsor said the process would shift major rules from an opt-out to an opt-in framework through concurrent resolution. No vote was taken on the bill in the transcript. The committee also heard House Bill 2928, which would add certification by the United States Concealed Carry Association as an approved qualification for concealed carry instructors in Missouri. The sponsor said the change would simply expand the list of recognized instructor credentials alongside NRA and law enforcement certification, and members asked about the state registry and sheriff’s role in verifying instructors. House Bill 1752 was then heard, a fire protection district ethics measure requiring surplus property to be sold through sealed bid or an approved online auction platform such as govdeals.com. The sponsor and a fire district witness said the bill was meant to prevent improper sales to insiders and ensure transparent disposal of public property; several members supported it and suggested it could be a consent bill. The transcript ends with the committee concluding its hearing after no opposition or informational testimony on HB 1752.

Summary: The House opened with the Pledge of Allegiance and then took up several Committee on Rules reports. It adopted a resolution congratulating Stoneham on its 300th anniversary and approved orders extending reporting deadlines for the Judiciary, Revenue, and Transportation committees. The House also concurred with a Senate referral of a petition on school bus safety to the Committee on Public Safety and Homeland Security, and suspended Joint Rule 12 to send a petition on dogs and kennels to the Committee on Municipalities and Regional Government. The Steering, Policy and Scheduling Committee recommended several matters for consideration, including a Millbury town meeting validation bill, a sick leave bank for a Department of Elementary and Secondary Education employee, a commuter rail parking payment pilot program, and a study of extending the Orange Line. After suspending Rule 7A, the House ordered these items to a third reading. It then passed to enact a bill authorizing Westfield to set an age limit for original appointment as a police officer. The House also took up and passed to engrossment a bill permitting Revere to establish penalties and liens for noise ordinance violations. Finally, it adopted an order to adjourn to Monday at 11 a.m., and then adjourned.

Summary: The House opened with the Pledge of Allegiance and then adopted several resolutions, including commendations for Praxia Awareness Day and congratulations to an Eagle Scout. It also suspended Joint Rule 12 to allow a Barnstable petition concerning regulation of vessel transportation in Marston Mills and Osterville to go to the Committee on Transportation. The House then took up a Steering, Policy and Scheduling report and advanced three bills: a Westford local option liquor license bill, a Westfield liquor license conversion bill, and a sick leave bank bill for Carla Johnson of the Department of Unemployment Assistance. All were ordered to a third reading. The House later considered and passed several measures, including a sick leave bank for Courtney Cochran of the Department of Children and Families, a Senate bill allowing Taunton to establish a separate water billing rate for manufactured housing, and a Hope Dale bill creating the office of town administrator. It also engrossed a Chelmsford bridge naming bill and a Sudbury senior property tax exemption bill. On Senate 2544, concerning the number of registered voters needed to petition for a special town meeting in Andover, the House adopted an amendment adding an immediate effective date before passing it to be engrossed as amended. The chamber observed a moment of silence in memory of Phyllis Simon of South Boston, described as a longtime educator and public servant. At the end of the session, the House adopted an order to adjourn and then adjourned to meet the following Monday at 11 a.m. in informal session.
