 HB 144 - NONUNION STATE EMPLOYEE SALARY INCREASE                            
                                                                               
 Number 470                                                                    
                                                                               
 The next order of business was HB 144, "An Act relating to salaries           
 for officers and employees of the state who are not members of a              
 collective bargaining unit; and providing for an effective date."             
                                                                               
 At 4:45 p.m. CHAIRMAN KOTT said the committee would take a five               
 minute at ease.  The meeting was called back to order at 4:50 p.m.            
 He announced the committee had before them five labor contract                
 bills and there are several people signed up to testify.  He said             
 it is the intent of the Chairman to pass the bills out in their               
 virgin form.  He said he would take them numerically, from HB 144             
 through HB 305.                                                               
                                                                               
 He asked if there was anyone to testify on HB 144.  There being no            
 response, he asked for a motion to move the bill.                             
                                                                               
 REPRESENTATIVE PORTER moved to pass HB 144 out of the House Labor             
 and Commerce Committee with attached fiscal notes and individual              
 recommendations.  CHAIRMAN KOTT asked if there was an objection.              
 Hearing none, HB 144 was moved out of committee
