House adopts amendments to bill 88451a; Ways and Means and Rules to meet

A lawmaker asked the presiding officer to call the House to order, and the chair did so, noting a quorum and instructing the clerk to read the journal of Friday, April 10.

The clerk was not recorded reading the journal after a lawmaker moved to dispense with further reading and that the journal 'stand approved.' The chair said, 'Without objection, so ordered.'

During routine business, a lawmaker read a quotation from author Martin Kornfield: "if we all do 1 random act of kindness daily, we just might set the world in the right direction." The quote was presented without further discussion of its relation to pending business.

The lawmaker then announced the day's schedule and called for the Ways and Means and Rules committees to meet in the Speaker's Conference Room to prepare a calendar to be taken up later in the session.

On a motion referenced in the transcript as by Mr. Bronson ("On a motion by mister Bronson, page 32, calendar 295, bill number 8 8 4 5 1 a."), the chair announced that the amendments to the bill were "received and adopted." The transcript does not record a roll-call vote or the substance of the bill or the amendments.

Finally, on Mr. Fall's request, the House stood at ease. The transcript records these procedural steps but does not provide debate on the bill's content or details of the adopted amendments.
