Members of the House of Student Representatives voted to send a bill, which would change the finance guidelines of the Student Government Association, back to the House Executive Board Tuesday evening.

Opponents of the bill said it changed too much too quickly and the House needed more time to consider it.

SGA Speaker of the House Dalton Goodier said the motion to send the bill back to the House Executive Board was passed 20-19 with one representative abstaining.

The bill will be voted on again next Tuesday after the committee leaders and other members in appointed positions, such as Speaker of the House, looked at the legislation again.

Trevor Melvin, a John V. Roach Honors College representative, said he wanted to vote on the legislation next week because there was not enough time to consider the legislation, which would have made fundamental changes.

SGA Treasurer David Belpedio said he understood why the bill was sent back but was frustrated.

“I believe that a lot of House members will express concerns, but won’t bring those concerns forward and email them to me,” he said.

Kari Berdelle, chairwoman of the Finance Committee, said she had been working on the legislation since October and was upset with the decision to send the bill back.

“It was frustrating for it then to be delayed again just because a few people felt like they needed to read over it more,” she said.

Berdelle said she hoped the people who expressed concerns read over the bill again and talked to her about it.

Berdelle and Belpedio both said they thought the House would pass the bill next Tuesday.

According to the new guidelines, one of the biggest changes the bill would have made would be having members of the Finance Committee comprise the Activities Funding Board.

In the proposed version of the bill, members of the Finance Committee would keep track of organizations that received SGA money to ensure the money was being used correctly, according to the guidelines.

The Activities Funding Board, which allocates money to student organizations, would meet once a year to allocate $70,000 out of the $100,000 they have, according to the guidelines.

The remaining $30,000 would be left over for emergency funding that student organizations may need, according to the legislation.
