Chairman Therriault announced that Senator Olson was attending a caucus. He then asked Mr. Burnett to address the section that was rejected. MR. JERRY BURNETT, aide to Senator Lyda Green, said the House amended language on page 4, line 29, to include telemarketing. The concern was that it would provide a barrier to a higher turn out rate at the voting polls. CHAIRMAN THERRIAULT stated the removal of telemarketing on page 4, line 29, is the only change in the conference committee version of SB 363. SENATOR COWDERY moved CCS SB 363 from committee and asked for unanimous consent. CHAIRMAN THERRIAULT announced that without objection, the motion carried. There being no further business to come before the committee, CHAIRMAN THERRIAULT adjourned the meeting at 8:07 p.m.
