The House Rules Committee advanced House Concurrent Resolutions 46, 47, 50, 54, 56, 60, 61, 62, 63, 67, 68, 69, 71, 79 and 83 to the full house.
Additionally, the committee reviewed House Bill 2043, which was split into two bills. The new version of House Bill 2043 allows drones to be used to track wounded wildlife. The bill also amends the section of code that only allows one dog per dog handler when using dogs to track wounded animals. If the UAV/drone operator does not own or lease the property, they must be licensed.
The originating House Bill adds licensed livestock facilities, licensed livestock slaughter facilities, and commercial poultry facilities to the definition of critical infrastructure facilities and to the section of code relating to trespassing on and causing damage to critical infrastructure.
Both bills advance to the full House.
