The House stands in Recess until 3 p.m. Represenative Thompson raised a point regarding the supplemental calendar just prior to recess for lunch and brought it again this afternoon. There is a disagreement as to whether the supplemental calendar must be layed out for 2 hours or 36 hours. The 2 hour delay was Craddick's call, so we sit here until 3, eagerly awaiting the sexy cheerleader debate. Oh well, that's enough time to learn a new routine.
You Rules experts explain it to us in the comments, please. Thanks.
This delay gives us some time before cheerleading is on the floor. Could all you staffers meet me in room E2010 so we can work out a routine? Bring the pom-poms and megaphones those folks dropped off so we look like a real squad, ok?
Rule 6, Section 16(a) "...the Committee on Calendars shall be authorized to print and distribute, not later than two hours before the house convenes, a supplemental daily house calendar..." This covers 3rd reading bills.
