No. The Bill came up too early for them to have a chance. It's 54 hours to the end of the session. (That was no accident.)

Chas.

Now it has passed.

Now if we can get SB 11 up

OH YEAH! gimme a beer!

Charles, thank you and yours for all the help on this legislation effort. Rock on!

I *just* missed it. Just got home and pulled up the live stream and the Senate had already moved on.

Now who is hosting the BBQ?

It takes a certain amount of preparation to filibuster, prepared to not lean on podium, not go get food, not go to a restroom, etc.. I doubt they were bluffing, perhaps they didn't expect it today.... just my guess.
No one wore pink cowboy boots, so ...

Charles, I cannot imagine the extraordinary effort behind the scenes to get HB910 back on track. It is truly astonishing we managed to get this passed after the many wrenches thrown into the process by certain dimwits.

THANK YOU!

A truly amazing past 30 minutes. Truly amazing.
