Day 2

The House convened this morning at 10:00 and made quick work of the three bills presented. The Governor's severance tax bill was passed on to the Senate by a vote of 81 yeas, 16 nays and 1 present. The other bills included Rep. Bond's legislation to repeal his marriage bill from the last session, and Rep. Hyde's request to extend the time frame for the Pulaski County school district's desegregation case. Both met little opposition. We adjourned until 1:30 this afternoon, and it looks like we'll be back Wednesday morning to finalize things, and hopefully home by supper.
