Proposing amendments to the Constitution of the State of Alaska               
relating to the rights of victims of crimes and to criminal                    
administration.                                                                
                                                                               
with a title Change authorized by SCR 19.                                      
                                                                               
There being no objection, it was so ordered.                                   
                                                                               
Representative Phillips moved that the House concur in the Senate              
amendment to CSHJR 43(FIN), thus adopting SCS CSHJR 43(JUD),                   
and recommended that the members vote yes.                                     
                                                                               
                                                                               
The question being:  "Shall the House concur in the Senate amendment           
to CSHJR 43(FIN)?"  The roll was taken with the following result:

And so, lacking the necessary 27 votes, the House failed to concur in          
the Senate amendment, thus failing to adopt SCS CSHJR 43(JUD).                 
                                                                               
                                                                               
The Chief Clerk was instructed to so notify the Senate and respectfully        
request it to recede from its amendment.                                       
                                                                               
                                                                               
In the event the Senate fails to recede, the Speaker appointed the             
following members to a Conference Committee to meet with a like                
committee from the Senate to consider the above resolutions:                   
                                                                               
                          Representative Porter, Chair                         
                             Representative Parnell                            
                             Representative Navarre                            
                                                                               
                                                                               
The Senate Conference Committee members are Senators Miller, Chair,            
Leman and Donley (page 4607 of the Senate Journal).
