Description

This meeting will convene after a short recess.

A

Okay, members: we've got our information here, we're gonna distribute our committee sub. So let's find our seats and.

B

A

We'll we'll reconvene here.

A

Okay, before we get started, we had accepted a motion on the bill from senator alvarado. uh We need to withdraw that motion, so we can consider this committee sub so withdrawn. Okay, senator alvarado and senator nemas have withdrawn their motions on the bill uh you have before us. So is there a motion on committee sub? It's all moved. Okay, we have a second.

C

A

Okay, we have the before us the committee sub uh I'd, ask uh senator schroeder, since he brought the issue up if you'd like to cover this. Please.

D

Thank you, mr chairman. um As members look at the new committee sub, if you will refer to page two, what has been added is uh the fourth supreme court district. We heard from representative nemes. The fourth is jefferson county. There was a debate whether or not this was necessary. I think out of an abundance of caution. We all agree, including representative nemes. Let's just go ahead and put it in there if you're wondering why it is not on line two with the first second and sixth supreme court district.

D

That is because line two is referring to the newly redistricted first, second and six, and obviously with jefferson remaining the same because it is one county. That is why it has its own separate line, and that is the only change mr chair.

A

Any questions on the committee sub: we have a motion and a second on the committee sub, all in favor, say aye aye, any opposed committee sub is adopted. Now we will move toward the approval of the bill. Is there a motion on the bill motion on a bill from senator alvarado? Second from senator wheeler, madam clerk, please call the rope.

E

Senator alvarado aye senator harper angel senator mcdaniel senator mccarvey, senator nemes aye senator senator southworth.

C

Spend my vote, mr chairman. Yes,.

A

C

I'm voting. Yes, um I think this map is far cry better than the one we have currently and probably better than a lot of maps that maybe they've gone through in the process.

C

I do still have a little bit of concern about the 61 000 vote, disparity and I'm still interested in doing more research on that, but definitely we're moving in the right direction. Senator.

E
