If you arrive early, go to the overflow room we have been using in the House of Delegates - From the lobby, turn right down the hallway and straight back

Will be there after work. I am assuming that this will occur all week. Anyone have a rough schedule for the week?

Wynter · Apr 2, 2013

Thanks!!!!

I'm going to do my best to scoot out of work a little early. I want to be there around 6 at the latest. I imagine that the debate will be going on for quite some time tonight.

7-8pm ill try to be there.

I'm at work until I can finish up a few things for the day, but am hoping to be out of here by 3-ish, showing up around 4-ish.

My husband and I can't make it until 6:00 but we'll be there. No time after work to fancy up, is that ok? Or should we be a little later and suit and tie it?

Come as you are.

Come to Del Smigel's office, we will send you where we need you at this time.

The thing that's killing me the most folks is both good and bad: The wife is making a boat load and traveling like a maniac, so I'm watching our infant and this has been keeping me stuck at home or around home.

I've got to say thank you to all of the folks that have been getting their behinds to Annapolis.

Go to the House of Delegates and look in the lobby, then check the hallway of the Judiciary Committee, then Smigiel's office 323. You should find a MDS contingent in one of those places.

We will make it even easier, go to the overflow room that was used the last couple of times.

"Amendments can then be offered from the floor by any member. After all amendments are considered, the presiding officer orders the bill to be printed for its third and final reading."

From the legislation process, does this mean this could go on all night again?

yes. it also means that if the democrats are under orders to reject all amendments, and they do so, that the printing is already done, and it potentially may get a 3rd reading and final vote in the house tonight.

So when my wife gets there at about 2:00 or so, I'll tell her to go straight to the house of delegates building to the same overflow room she was in on Friday. I guess there will be instructions on what to do or where to be to be most effective?

This makes sense, however why did they Dems pass amendments during committee?

Probably cause the order hadn't come down at the time.

The House of Delegates is 6 Bladen Street, looking from the State House/Lawyer's mall, it's the first building on the right across College Avenue. Go through security about halfway down the building, into the lobby, turn right, and straight back. The overflow room is straight ahead.

No it won't they would need an additional session for 3rd reading and we don't see them spending all night just to adjurn and come back 60 minutes later to pass this on 3rd reading, where even more amendments could be brought.

The liberal, anti-gun Democrats are divided on some issues, including certain mental health disqualifications, and the Simmons Amendment (imposing a firearms disqualification on people who have received Probation Before Judgment for certain crimes). As far as I could tell, however, no amendment actively opposed by the governor's staff was adopted in the House committee.
