First Regular Session, 91st General Assembly
SEVENTH DAY, Thursday, January 11, 2001
Speaker Pro Tem Abel in the Chair.
Prayer by Reverend Rudy Beard.
Gracious God, help us to understand that our pace of living often shuts You out of our minds and hearts. Living this fast, shutting You out, leaves us to wonder about with good intentions, half truths and unhappy compromises.
Give to all of us a passion for that which is excellent, rather than the politics of the expedient, for that which is morally right rather than socially correct. Guide this House, and to You be all glory and honor. Amen.
The Pledge of Allegiance to the flag was recited.
The Journal of the sixth day was approved as corrected by the following vote:
