Actually SewTexas the only reason the bill passed is BECAUSE I went to bed and stopped the jinx!

I'm going to watch the recording of the melee. Thank you Lord!

This thread started at 8:53am this morning. I've watched the ENTIRE session, save for 2 hours. yWith 43 minutes remaining, this bill is as good as dead, I'm sorry to say.

I'm tired, disappointed, disgusted, and sick to my stomach. I had such high hopes for this bill passing, noting the past pledges and statements from the House & Senate leaders, and beyond. All not to be. This is a bitter pill to swallow.

SewTexas, I wish you success. And with that, good night, God Bless you all, and God Bless Texas.

How is what she's talking about germane to the bill??? They've already recognized that teaching hospitals are off limits!

Amendment 4 fails!

Amendment 1 passes.

I think amendment 2 was an amendment to amendment 1. Amendment 1 is still alive.....I think.

SB 11 is up!

Did I hear the Speaker that #27 is last amendment??

SewTexas wrote:it failed, good

Totally agree SewTexas!

Not germane (among a bunch of reasons)

I understand that.

SB11 is essentially dead. Strauss isn't going to allow a vote on it.

Does everyone agree? Is there ANY life left in SB11

I'm holding my opinion until SB19 is finished.

If you look at the Supplemental House Calendar for today, you will see that SB19 is the only bill on the Emergency Calendar, 2nd Reading. The next one on the Supplemental House calendar is on the Major State Calendar 2nd reading, SB206. THEN comes SB11, 2nd reading.

If the House follows the Calendar then IMHO there's a chance they can get to SB11. If they don't then I think it's dead. Just IMO.

That would be Local & Consent Calendar.

Debating SB 9 on Major House Calendar! One away....if all goes well.

This has nothing to do with anything. I just wanted to say how true Charles' statement was about a LOT of people who are not members follow this board.

At 5:20pm, there are 126 active members on the board and 75 guests(non-members)

Of those75 guests, 41 are right here in the 2015 Legislative Sessions sub-forum. Thank you guests for following this forum, and thank you for visiting TexasCHLForum.com!
