  MS. DITTON stated HCR 30 was the same.                                       
                                                                               
  CHAIR VEZEY clarified that last year was the 25th Annual                     
  Girls' State.

  REPRESENTATIVE KOTT moved to pass HCR 30 out of committee                    
  unanimously.
