I think a member on the floor has to move a "point of order" to enforce the time limit. If they aren't paying attention or have all gone out to join Stickland for a cheeseburger, they won't be able to declare the point of order.

Look how happy Straus looks..

Some of you folks really don't seem to like Strickland. The "cheeseburger" comment sounds much like the childishness comments that have been going around.
Why?

What comments would you be referring to? I like cheeseburgers too. But I don't act like a child on the Texas House floor.

Was my rep, Myra Crownover, trying to chub to kill time??

How's the Campus Carry (SB 11) bill going?

Terrible.

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

Not sure if anyone who supports SB11 would speak right now.

Is there any mechanism for ending debate or amendments?

Do you have any personal knowledge that Representative Strickland has left to get a cheesburger? I doubt it.
