Indicates Matter Stricken
Indicates New Matter

The House assembled at 12:00 noon.
Deliberations were opened with prayer by Rev. Charles E. Seastrunk, Jr., as follows:

Our thought for today is from Psalm 25:21: "May integrity and uprightness protect, because my hope is in you."

Let us pray. Gracious God, guide these Representatives to be examples of integrity and uprightness as they represent their districts, providing those people with goodness and fairness. Use them for the betterment of this State. Grant our leaders, both national and statewide, Your blessings. For our Speaker and staff, hold them in the palm of Your hand. Guide each person who serves in these Halls of Government. Protect our defenders of freedom as they protect us. Heal the wounds of our brave warriors, those seen and those unseen. Hear our prayer, O Lord. Amen.

Pursuant to Rule 6.3, the House of Representatives was led in the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America by the SPEAKER.

After corrections to the Journal of the proceedings of Friday, the SPEAKER ordered it confirmed.
