Indicates New Matter

The House assembled at 2:00 p.m.
Deliberations were opened with prayer by Rev. Charles E. Seastrunk, Jr., as follows:

Our thought for today is from Psalm 139:16: "Your eyes beheld my unformed substance. In your book were written all the days that were formed for me."
Let us pray. All knowing Creator, thank You for Your ever present watchful eye and everlasting love. Bestow upon these Representatives and staff the courage, wisdom, and integrity to do what is expected of them. Continue to bless our Nation, President, State, Governor, Speaker, staff, and all who work to support them. Protect our defenders of freedom, as they protect us. Heal the wounds, those seen and those hidden, of our brave warriors. Lord, in Your mercy, hear our prayer. 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 ACTING SPEAKER DELLENEY.

After corrections to the Journal of the proceedings of yesterday, ACTING SPEAKER DELLENEY ordered it confirmed.
