Summary:
The Transportation Committee took up several measures and adopted amendments on multiple bills. SB 1274, as amended, removed a number of provisions from the original bill and added items including local authority to lower residential street speed limits, clarification on obscured license plates, FDOT funding for certain rural airport aviation projects, limits on yellow-light timing changes tied to red-light cameras, changes to private use of license plate readers, and other transportation-related revisions. After brief questions and supportive testimony, the committee reported the bill favorably.
The committee also approved SB 1310, which was converted into a study bill directing FDOT to study advanced detection and monitoring systems at public railroad crossings and report findings and policy options to the governor and legislature. Railroad industry testimony supported the study but raised concerns about interoperability with train safety systems and suggested the study consider additional safety tools such as red-light cameras and wayside horns. The committee adopted the amendment and reported the bill favorably. SB 828, as amended, would extend sovereign immunity protections to private contractors providing public transit services on behalf of governments, with supporters saying it would reduce costs and provide certainty for transit providers, while opponents warned it was an overbroad expansion of sovereign immunity and could conflict with railroad employee protections under federal law. The committee reported that bill favorably as well.
The committee then passed SB 1378, which strengthens traffic enforcement by clarifying when vehicles may be treated as abandoned, adding penalties for unlawfully attached plates or stickers, and allowing forfeiture of vehicles used to flee law enforcement even without an immediate arrest. It also approved SB 1562, which aims to prevent manufacturers from concentrating sales of certain vehicle brands through a single dealer group and instead promote competition among independent dealers. In addition, the committee unanimously confirmed a slate of appointees, and members later recorded additional affirmative votes on several bills before adjourning.

Summary:
The committee first approved the prior day’s minutes as amended, correcting the meeting number from the 46th to the 45th meeting. It then took up House File 3217, which would restore funding for the Minnesota Bioincentive Program. Representative Kisha argued the state should honor commitments made to companies that met program requirements and had not received full reimbursement. Testifiers from the Great Plains Institute and Minnesota Biofuels Association said the program has supported bioeconomy investment, reduced greenhouse gas emissions, and generated strong economic returns, but has been underfunded, leaving unpaid claims. Members raised questions about whether the bill was retrospective and whether it should be reviewed by another committee; the bill was laid over for further consideration without a vote.
The committee then heard House File 2252, a proposal to modernize Minnesota’s private activity bond volume cap by shifting unused allocation from the small issuer/manufacturing bucket to the public facilities bucket while leaving the overall cap unchanged. The bill’s public finance testifier said the current allocation formula is outdated, housing would remain the top priority, and the change would be budget neutral. Testifiers from the Minnesota Milk Producers Association and Minnesota Biofuels Association supported the bill, saying it would better align financing with rural infrastructure, clean water, manure management, renewable natural gas, dairy processing, and low-carbon fuel projects, and could lower borrowing costs for those sectors. Members questioned whether the bill fit the committee’s jurisdiction and noted it might be more appropriate for another committee; the bill was also laid over for further consideration.

Summary:
The committee first approved the February 9, 2026 minutes and then took up Senate Bill 1618, which would restructure the Military Affairs Commission by changing membership, adding defense and industry expertise, expanding advisory roles, requiring more frequent meetings, and directing the commission to focus on sustaining and attracting military missions and defense-related economic activity. After testimony in support from the Southwest Mission Acceleration Center and a DEMA representative, the committee adopted the Gowan amendment and gave SB 1618 a do-pass recommendation by a 6-1 vote.
The committee then heard Senate Bill 1047, the “Defend the Guard” bill, which would bar Arizona National Guard members from being sent into active-duty combat overseas unless Congress has declared war or otherwise expressly authorized the action. Supporters, including veterans and activists, argued it would restore constitutional limits and protect Guard members from unauthorized wars; opponents warned it could harm Guard readiness, federal funding, and the Guard’s role in state missions. After extended debate, the committee passed SB 1047 on a 4-3 vote.
Next, Senate Bill 1474 was heard, which would require state and local law enforcement to cooperate with federal immigration authorities, prohibit restrictions on such cooperation, and require sheriff’s offices to enter 287(g) agreements under the amendment. The bill drew strong opposition from clergy and community members who argued it would increase fear, racial profiling, and unfunded mandates, while supporters said it would improve cooperation and public safety. The committee adopted the amendment and gave SB 1474 a do-pass recommendation by a 4-3 vote.
The committee also considered Senate Bill 1620, which would revise the Arizona Space Commission by reducing governor appointments, adding the lieutenant governor as chair, and making legislative and executive leaders nonvoting advisory members. The sponsor said the changes would better align the commission with Arizona’s growing aerospace and space interests. The bill received a do-pass recommendation on a 5-1 vote. Finally, the committee began consideration of Senate Bill 1365, which would remove the income cap for the property tax exemption available to disabled veterans on their primary residence; discussion focused on the fairness of eliminating the cap, and the committee moved to adopt the strike-everything amendment before the transcript cuts off.
