The motion to hold off and let a subcommittee study changes to HB 404, the anti-Occupy bill, has failed with just five "yes" votes - the House State Affairs Committee's four Democrats plus Rep. Janice McGeachin, R-Idaho Falls. By the same vote, the committee then also killed the motion to send the bill to the House's amending order to remove the emergency clause. The panel is now debating the original motion, to pass the bill as-is.
