The resolution mandates that the following bills be addressed in the specified order: HB128, which allows the Board of Midwifery to accept gifts and grants; HB86, which revises the criteria for parole consideration; SB364, which requires public K-12 education to include violence prevention, conflict resolution, and mediation instruction starting in sixth grade; and SB318, which revises the criminal elements of the crime of sexual torture.
