Madam Chair. Thank you, members. This is just a simple bill that's repealing a report that has been required that is no longer needed or required because it just doesn't exist anymore, and it's just a simple repeal.

Are there any questions by committee? Representative Gonzalez-Werthin, you're recognized. Thank

you. Yes, I was just wanting to know, and you may have already answered it, but what was the report initially, and so are they doing a different type of reporting now? This was a report that

was required by federal law, and it's no longer required by federal law. So we're just doing away with a report that was no longer needed because they were having to do it because of a federal law.

Will there be other reports in place of that one? They give us several reports already, and as a member, you can ask them at

any time for a report, and they can give it to you. Okay. Yes. Thank you. Any other questions
Chair

bill? Okay, you recognize the close for your bill? I'm closed, and we appreciate a due pass. We have a motion do pass as amended. Any discussion on the motion? All in favor, say aye. Aye. Opposed, no.
Congratulations. Your bill is missed. Thank you. Thank you, committee. Thank you for being here. I realize you could have looked at these bills and decided that, oh, hey, somebody else will be there. Thank you for letting us have a quorum. It's very frustrating to have two people that are coming, even if their bill is short, but we don't have a quorum. So thank you for that. We did pass over Senate Bill 340, which we plan to hear the week after spring break. So with that, we're adjourned and enjoy your spring break.
