ACTION NARRATIVE TAPE 93-2, SIDE A Number 001 The Senate Rules Committee was called to order by Chairman Jacko at 1:08 p.m. CHAIRMAN JACKO introduced CSHCR 10(HES) an (FEDERAL-AID HY FUNDING/DRUG ENFORCEMENT) as the first order of business and opened the public hearing on the legislation. SENATOR BERT SHARP, Chairman of the Senate Transportation Committee, noted that CSHCR 10(HES) am is the same as CSSCR 2(FIN) which was passed out of the Finance Committee that morning. The resolution states that the legislature is opposed to the requirement by the federal government that the state enact legislation to revoke or suspend the driver's license of a person convicted of a drug offense if the drug offense does not involve the operation of a motor vehicle, aircraft, or watercraft. Senator Sharp said the people at the Department of Transportation & Public Facilities feel that the resolution will be acceptable to the feds, and that more and more states are going to this resolution to accommodate the mandate that would cost a reduction of close to nine to 10 million dollars the first two years and each year thereafter if the state dealt to conform to the federal mandate. SENATOR RIEGER moved and asked unanimous consent that CSHCR 10(HES) am be passed out of committee with individual recommendations and that it be approved for calendaring at the Chair's discretion. Hearing no objection, it was so ordered. CHAIRMAN JACKO brought SB 42 (LOCAL SALES TAX ON ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES) before the committee as the final order of business. SENATOR HALFORD moved and asked unanimous consent that SB 42 be approved for calendaring at the Chair's discretion. Hearing no objection, it was so ordered. There being no further business to come before the committee, the meeting was adjourned at 1:11 p.m.
