Summary: The House convened with roll call, prayer, and the Pledge of Allegiance, then approved the journal and received several communications, including substitute-member appointments and committee reports on pending administrative rules. The House State Affairs and Resources and Conservation committees recommended approval of most agency rules, with some exceptions and one rejection for inconsistency with legislative intent. The chamber also received gubernatorial and Senate messages transmitting and signing numerous bills, and it concurred in several Senate amendments to House bills, including HB 730, HB 928, HB 758, and HB 822. The main floor action focused on suspending rules to take up memorials and bills. House Joint Memorial 22, concerning wildlife and pelican impacts on fisheries, was adopted after debate emphasizing fish losses and asking for federal compensation. HB 957, a Department of Water Resources code-cleanup bill, and SB 1396, repealing an inactive Pacific Fisheries Task Force provision, both passed. HB 948, directing LSO to help produce an annual revenue estimate, passed 61-4. HB 967, providing $4 million for Idaho State Police pay raises by shifting some liquor-account revenue, passed 50-18 after debate over impacts on counties, cities, and property taxes. The House also passed HB 959, a property-tax measure for fire and EMS districts that raises the cap for those districts and changes how new construction is calculated, after extensive debate on property-tax relief and local impacts. On the Senate side, SB 1435, the Health and Welfare maintenance budget, passed; SB 1401, a public health enhancement bill, failed 30-36; SB 1429, the behavioral health enhancement budget, passed 39-27; SB 1431, the Water Resources enhancement budget, passed 48-18; SB 1389, addressing liability for private polling locations, passed; SB 1391, a trailer bill adding surveyors to a property-rights/trespass measure, passed; and SJM 114, urging Congress to act on NIL in college athletics, was adopted by voice vote.

Summary: The House first took up House Bill 2156, which would expand the Attorney General’s investigative authority, especially for organized retail crime and related economic and financial crimes. Members debated a series of amendments on training standards, background checks, warrant service, scope limits, and definitions. Some amendments were adopted, including provisions clarifying electronic service of search warrants, background-check expectations, decertification standards, and a definition of economic and financial crimes; others were rejected or ruled out of scope. The bill was then amended, advanced, and passed 54-43. The House then considered several other measures. Engrossed Substitute House Bill 2219 on child care operational efficiency passed overwhelmingly after amendments addressing opioid-related safety standards in licensed child care settings. House Bill 2124, adjusting the lump-sum retirement allowance threshold, passed unanimously. Engrossed Substitute House Bill 2266, dealing with permanent supportive housing, traditional housing, and indoor emergency shelters, was amended to add local notice, transparency, community meeting, and siting protections, then passed 56-40. The chamber also passed Engrossed Second Substitute House Bill 1784, which updates certified medical assistant supervision rules for diagnostic radiologic procedures, by 96-0. Engrossed Second Substitute House Bill 2523, codifying the Community Reinvestment Program, passed 88-9 after amendments adding accountability and local-government provisions.

Summary: The House received a Senate message announcing passage of engrossed substitute Senate Bill 5156, then moved to second reading and final passage on several House bills. Substitute House Bill 2244, which adopts recommendations from the Public Records Exemptions Accountability Committee/Sunshine Committee to clean up public records exemption statutes, was advanced and passed 70-26 after Representative Mena urged support and Representative Walsh expressed mixed concerns about exemptions from the Public Records Act and voted no. The House then considered Engrossed Substitute House Bill 2196, a bill expanding coverage for treatment related to PANS/PANDAS. Members described the bill as helping families access expensive care such as IVIG, while opponents raised concerns about premium costs and the scope of coverage. Amendment 1883 narrowed the bill to large-group coverage and was adopted 54-36; Amendment 1943, which would have included PEBB and SEBB state insurance plans, failed. The bill then passed 83-13. The House also passed Engrossed Second Substitute House Bill 2251, which reorganizes Climate Commitment Act account uses and related allocations, after rejecting a proposal to direct more money to transportation and forest landowner compensation; the bill passed 56-41. Additional measures passed with broad support. Substitute House Bill 2339, a technical update to nursing regulation and Board of Nursing rulemaking authority, passed 94-3.

Summary: The House convened with a quorum, offered the Pledge of Allegiance and prayer, approved the prior day’s minutes, and adopted House Resolution 4691 recognizing Presidents’ Day. Supporters of the resolution praised presidential leadership and civic ideals, while one member used the occasion to note the historical harms and contradictions of figures such as Washington, Lincoln, and FDR. The resolution was adopted by voice vote, and the House also recognized visiting former legislators and Black leaders in the chamber. The chamber then took up several bills, often suspending the rules to move measures directly to third reading. Second Substitute House Bill 1923, creating a local option for passenger-only ferry districts, passed 84-11 after debate over ferry reliability, local control, and possible tax “stacking.” Substitute House Bill 2475, requiring language-accessible public programs and services, passed 62-33 amid support for access and safety and opposition over unfunded mandates, overregulation, and concerns about technology and assimilation. Engrossed Substitute House Bill 2508, clarifying the Office of Independent Investigations’ authority, passed 90-6 after a technical amendment; supporters said it would improve police accountability processes, while some noted remaining concerns about investigations. House Bill 2464, requiring reporting and law-enforcement response data for incidents at private detention facilities, passed 58-38, with supporters emphasizing transparency and critics calling it political and questioning the agency chosen to collect the data.

Second Substitute House Bill 2384, increasing oversight of continuing care retirement communities, passed 78-14; supporters cited senior protections and solvency, while opponents worried about duplicative costs.

Summary: The House first considered House Bill 2156, which would authorize investigators in the Attorney General’s Office to serve electronic search warrants in limited economic and financial crime investigations, especially organized retail crime. Members debated a series of amendments on training standards, scope, background checks, warrant service, and definitions of covered crimes. Some amendments were adopted, including changes clarifying training and decertification standards, narrowing the scope of economic and financial crimes, and refining warrant-service language; others were rejected or ruled out of scope. The amended striking amendment passed 52-39, and the bill then passed final reading 54-43. The House then moved through several other measures. House Bill 2219, dealing with child care operational efficiency and licensing, was amended to strengthen safety language around opioids in licensed child care settings and passed 95-1. House Bill 2124, which raises the threshold for lump-sum retirement allowance payments, passed 96-0. House Bill 2266, concerning permanent supportive housing, traditional housing, and indoor emergency housing, was amended to add local-government notice, transparency, community-meeting, and siting provisions, then passed 56-40. Engrossed Second Substitute House Bill 1784, on certified medical assistants and telemedicine-related practice, received a cleanup amendment and passed 96-0. The House also passed House Bill 2523, which codifies the Community Reinvestment Program, after rejecting an amendment that would have redirected some funds to economic development; the bill passed 88-9. House Bill 2113, allowing certain medical supervision of diagnostic radiologic procedures in emergency settings, passed 97-0. House Bill 2632, updating state law terminology from “alien” to “non-citizen,” passed 58-39 after debate over precision versus respectful language. Engrossed Substitute House Bill 2476, expanding seating limits for theaters serving alcohol, passed 81-50. Finally, House Bill 2320, addressing firearms manufacturing involving 3D printers and CNC machines, was heavily amended to narrow and clarify language around code and additive manufacturing before the striker passed. The bill’s supporters framed it as a response to ghost-gun risks and recent incidents involving 3D-printed firearms, while opponents raised constitutional concerns about speech and gun rights. The transcript cuts off before the final vote on HB 2320 is recorded.

Summary: The House convened with 68 members present, opened with prayer and the Pledge of Allegiance, and approved the House Journal. It also received communications appointing substitute legislators and committee reports on pending administrative rules, including recommendations to approve most rules while rejecting or partially rejecting a few dockets from State Affairs and Resources and Conservation. The chamber also received messages from the Governor and Senate listing numerous bills signed, enrolled, or transmitted for further action.

Summary: The Senate convened with prayer by Senator Anthony H. Williams and the Pledge of Allegiance, then received gubernatorial communications and a long list of newly referred Senate and House bills and resolutions. The chamber approved the April 22, 2026 journal by a 49-0 vote. Senators also introduced guests, including a high school senior advisory council visiting with Senator Malone and a young guest welcomed by Senator Costa. On the floor, several bills were taken up and either set aside or advanced. Senate Bill 1377 and Senate Bill 482 were re-referred to Appropriations, Senate Bill 906 was re-referred to Rules and Executive Nominations, and Senate Bills 1133, 1334, and 1368 were also sent to Appropriations. Senator Dush requested a conflict-of-interest ruling on an amendment to Senate Bill 469; the chair ruled no conflict existed and required him to vote, and the amendment was adopted. The Senate also took Senate Bill 127 from the table and placed it on the calendar. The Senate then considered Supplemental Calendar Number One. Senate Bill 362 received a technical amendment and was advanced; Senate Bill 1183 passed 50-0; Senate Bill 1352, which would allow qualifying substance use disorder treatment providers to receive two-year licenses, passed 45-5 after supportive remarks from Senators Brooks, Tartaglione, and Street; and House Bill 1877, codifying the Pennsylvania seal of biliteracy, passed 50-0 after Senator Lindsey Williams described its student-led origins.

Summary: The Safety and Security Conference Committee met on May 13, 2026, with a quorum present and no immediate vote taken. Chairs explained the committee was working ahead of a possible target so it could act quickly later if needed, then proceeded with member introductions and a reminder about committee decorum. Staff noted a microphone delay and said the meeting would include a side-by-side walk-through of the House and Senate policy language and a review of the fiscal spreadsheet. Fiscal staff summarized major differences in court, public safety, and legislative security funding. The House and Senate proposals differed on safety and security funding for the Supreme Court, Court of Appeals, and District Courts, as well as on courthouse grants, capital security enhancements, and a new legislative/protective services unit. Staff also reviewed Senate-only and House-only items, including a Senate proposal to require removal of insignia from public safety vehicles sold to the public, and House provisions for a security services task force and member security costs. Total general fund impacts were reviewed, with the House total corrected to include an open appropriation that had been omitted from the spreadsheet totals. Nonpartisan staff then walked through the policy differences. The Senate language focused on a Protective Services Unit and security for principal state officials, while the House language focused on a Legislative Services Unit and security for legislators. Both bills included provisions on Capitol Complex Security, reporting requirements, and reimbursement arrangements with local law enforcement, but differed on details such as whether elected officials must provide contact information to DPS and how requests for personal protective services are handled. The House-only amendment A8 was presented for discussion; it would revise emergency contact provisions, replace the House’s personal protective services request language with a more detailed threat assessment and mitigation framework, direct implementation of the new unit, and make related reimbursement and technical changes. Judge Richard Kyle, president of the Minnesota District Judges Association, testified in support of stronger judicial and court safety measures. He described rising threats against judges, citing survey results showing high rates of judges limiting personal information, receiving inappropriate communications, changing personal behavior, and experiencing threats to themselves and family members. He said the association supports legislative authorization and funding for home security and personal data protections for judicial officers, and emphasized that safety concerns for judges and court staff have become more serious in recent years.
