Thank

That
brings
us
to
item
number
three
on
our
constitutional
amendment
calendar
that's
hjr,
72
by
representative
todd,
sir.
You
are
recognized.
F
You,
since
1947
we've
had
a
right
to
work
law
in
the
state
of
tennessee
and
what
this
does?
It
simply
puts
that
into
the
constitution.
It
gives
our
citizens
a
right
to
enshrine
that
into
the
constitution
right
to
work,
simply
says
that
workers
cannot
be
fired
or
penalized
for
joining
or
refusing
to
join
a
union
and
pay
union
dues.
F
Ultimately,
the
right
to
work
is
about
protecting
worker
freedom,
both
the
union
worker
and
the
non-union
worker.
If
a
person
wishes
to
join
a
union
and
pay
dues
for
the
union's
representation,
he
or
she
should
have
every
right
to
do
so,
but
if
a
worker
wishes
to
remain
independent,
not
contribute
to
his
cut,
not
contribute
his
or
her
hard-earned
income
to
union
news,
he
or
she
should
not
be
forced
to
do
so.
That's
precisely
a
decision
that
our
right
to
work
law
protects.
A
All
right,
thank
you,
and
we
do
have
some
folks
that
want
to
speak,
but
before
we
do
that,
is
there
any
discussion
right
now
for
the
sponsor
all
right,
seeing
none
we're
going
to
go
out
of
session
without
objection
and
our
first
speaker
is
going
to
be
toby.
Patton
is
toby
patton
here,
mr
patton
I'll
ask
you
to
come
up
to
the
podium.
Please
introduce
yourself
for
the
record.
Please
you
have
three
minutes
and
we'll
let
you
know
when
that
time
is
up.
You
may
begin.
Thank
you.
G
My
name
is
toby
patton.
I
am
a
business
agent
and
a
employer
of
teamsters
local
480
here
in
nashville
tennessee.
I
wanted
to
talk
to
you
guys
for
just
a
couple
of
minutes
about
the
fiscal
effects
of
hjr
72
and
right
to
work,
10
000,
to
spend
to
memorialize
a
flawed
law
in
our
constitution.
I
feel
as
though
it
was
a
mistake,
constitutional.
G
My
point
of
view
about
for
a
peer
is
going
to
be
what
belongs.
There
is
things
that
affect
everyone
in
the
state
civil
rights,
women's
rights,
equal
pay
for
all
things
that
people
can
look
to
and
be
proud
of.
What's
in
there
and
what
right
to
work
is.
This
is
an
attack
on
labor
unions,
and
I
understand
I've
talked
to
representative
todd
and
have
respect
for
him,
and
we
just
disagree
on
the
points
of
view
of
the
effects
of
this.
G
We
have
to
represent,
I
think,
we're
the
only
organization
that
I'm
aware
of
that
has
to
represent
everybody.
The
fiscal
effect
on
labor
unions
alone
is
large.
We
have
non-members
that
we
have
to
process
grievances
and
hear
them
and
get
them
their
pay
for
them,
and
them
not
contribute
one
single
dime
to
what
we
do,
which
is
a
negative
effect
on
us.
G
The
physical
effect
on
the
state
union
families
make
more
money
to
spend
into
the
economy,
they
have
better
health
benefits
that
are
zero
cost
to
federal
or
state
budgets,
and
they
have
better
pensions
or
retirements
to
spend
after
retirement
to
stimulate
a
state
economy.
I'm
not
standing
here
asking
you
guys
to
form
some
bill
to
overturn
right
to
wake
today.
That's
not
what
I'm
asking
for
I'm
just
saying
it
doesn't
belong
in
the
tennessee
state
constitution.
G
G
I
think
that
ten
thousand
dollars
will
be
much
better
served
to
maybe
your
ten
lowest
income
public
school
systems
that
need
it.
I
don't
think
that
you'll
I
know
I
know
you
look
at
the
tennessee
state
budget
and
you
think
ten
thousand
dollars
is
not
a
lot
of
money,
but
I
think
there
are
ten
schools
out
there.
That
would
absolutely
disagree
with
you
that
they
would
take
a
thousand
dollars
to
spend
this
kind
of
money
on
something
that
only
affects
a
very
small
percent
of
the
people
in
our
state.
G
There's
a
corporate
interest
bill
only
in
my
point
of
view
is
a
mistake,
and
I'm
asking
you
guys
to
reconsider
to
look
at
the
history
of
right
to
work
where
it
started.
What
legislator
it
started
under
what
was
the
real
purpose
of
it
when
it
began
to
take
a
close
look
at
it
because
it
was
flawed
from
the
beginning.
It's
flawed
now,
thank
you
for.
A
Your
time,
thank
you
very
much,
mr
patton.
Before
you
go
away
members
any
questions
for
our
our
guest,
mr
patton,
seeing
none!
Thank
you
very
much.
Thank
you,
mr
chairman.
Our
next
speaker
this
morning
is
going
to
be
scott
arnwine,
mr
r
wine
or
you
there.
You
are
sir,
once
they
get
the
podium
clean,
you
may
come
up,
please
introduce
yourself.
You've
got
three
minutes
and
I'll.
Let
you
know
when
that
time
is
up.
You
may
begin
when
you
are
ready.
C
Thank
you
all.
My
name
is
skyrim
one,
I'm
the
steward
from
local
number
519
knoxville
tennessee,
I'd
like
to
talk
about
the
hcr
72.
As
far
as
like
the
economic
ramifications,
spending
ten
thousand
dollars
on
a
flawed
law
such
as
mr
patton
collaborated
on
is
pushing
that
cost
over
to
local
governments
and
here's.
Why
it's
such
a
big
consequence,
because,
right
now
the
law
currently
only
protects
the
individual
from
the
union,
but
does
not
protect
the
union
from
an
individual
right
now,
my
local
is
spending
money
on
a
non-member
for
disciplinary
means.
C
A
Right.
Thank
you,
mr
arnwine.
Before
you
go
members
any
questions
for
our
guest,
mr
arnwine,
seeing
none.
Thank
you
very
much.
Thank
you
for
being
here
members
with
that.
There's
no
one
else
on
the
list.
So
without
objection
we're
going
to
go
back
in
session
and
I'm
going
to
go
back
to
the
sponsor
of
the
legislation,
you
recognize.
F
Thank
you,
mr
chairman,
and
I
appreciate
the
comments
appreciate
the
involvement
that
the
folks
have
had
to
come
and
testify
to
the
committee
and
and
even
prior
to
this,
with
conversations
we've
had
through
this
process.
There
are
things
that
I
have
learned
about
this
and
and
again
I
want
to
restate
that
this
doesn't
change
anything
with
what
the
state
of
tennessee
is
doing
right
now.
This
just
enshrines
what
we've
been
doing
for
almost
75
years
into
the
constitution.
F
If
the
citizens
so
desire,
the
statements
that
have
been
made,
I
think,
are
accurate
to
a
partial
degree.
There
is
a
federal
law
that
we
we
understand
has
some
effect
on.
This
labor
unions
are
required
to
represent
non-union
members
when
they
represent
the
majority
of
the
employees
in
that
unit,
whatever
that's
defined
as
but
when
they're
under
that
amount,
when
they're
under
that
50
mark
they
do
not
so
that
that
statement
is
true
to
partial
degree.
That's
not
a
state
law
that
doesn't
change
anything
on
the
state
basis.
F
We
still
have
what
we
have
today,
what
we've
had
for
almost
75
years,
so
there
are
no
changes
to
that.
This
just
allows
the
citizens
to
put
this
in
the
constitution
for
various
reasons,
one
of
which
is
financial.
That's
been
mentioned
already.
The
gdp
growth
from
2002
to
2012
in
the
economies
of
right
to
work
states
grew
by
a
total
of
62
percent
compared
to
only
46
and
a
half
percent
in
non-right
to
work
state
and
give
you
numerous
statistics
like
that.
F
That
show
this
is
a
very
positive
thing
for
a
state
to
have
this
and
to
enshrine
it
in
the
constitution,
solidifies
it
for
our
citizens
and
businesses
that
are
looking
to
come
to
tennessee.
We
all
know:
we've
seen
it
we're
continuing
to
see
the
migration
of
businesses
to
this
state
because
we
are,
we
are
very
much
pro-business.
We
give
a
level
playing
field
to
businesses,
we
provide
them
a
an
opportunity
to
thrive
in
a
state
with
low
regulation,
so
we're
very
reasonable
here,
and
we
want
to
continue
that.
We
want
to
see
that
continue.
F
A
A
A
H
This
by
deleting
language
in
the
name
of
the
county,
trustee
and
in
substituting
instead
the
language
in
the
name
of
the
taxing
jurisdiction.
That's
all
the
amendment
does.
A
H
A
A
Any
discussion
on
house
bill
358,
seeing
none
we're
now
voting
on
moving
house
bill,
358
on
to
full
finance,
all
those
in
favor
say
aye,
all
those
opposed
say
no,
the
eyes
have
it
house
bill
358
moves
to
full
finance.
Thank
you.
Thank
you
all
right.
That
brings
us
to
item
number
two
on
our
calendars
house
bill
556
by
deputy
speaker,
johnson,
sir.
You
have
a
motion
to
second,
you
are
recognizing
the
brief
description.
H
Thank
you,
mr
chairman
house,
bill
556
renews
the
annual
bed
assessment,
nursing
home
bed
assessment
through
june,
the
30th
of
2022.
A
All
right,
thank
you,
deputy
speaker.
Any
discussion
on
house
bill
556,
seeing
none
we're
now
voting
on
sending
house
bill
556
on
full
finance,
all
those
in
favor
say
aye,
all
those
opposed.
No
the
eyes
have
it
house
bill.
556
moves
to
full
finance
brings
us
to
item
number
three
on
our
calendar,
which
is
also
by
deputy
speaker
johnson.
That's
house
bill.
555,
you
have
a
motion.
A
second.
Please
continue
with
a
brief
description.
Thank
you,
mr.
A
A
A
E
Mr
chairman,
again,
this
is
the
bill
that
most
of
you
seen
before,
but
deals
with
civil
emergencies
and
some
of
the
updates
at
the
code.
We
need
to
be
able
to
probably
deal
with
those.
A
All
right
members
you've
heard
the
description
of
house
bill
779.
Is
there
any
just
any
discussion
on
house
bill
779,
seeing
none
we're
now
voting
on
house
bill,
779,
moving
on
to
full
finance,
all
those
in
favor
say:
aye,
all
those
opposed.
No
the
eyes
have
it
house
bill
779
moves
to
full
finance
to
item
number.
Nine.
On
our
calendar
item
number
nine
is
house
bill
773
by
leader,
lambert.
You
have
a
motion.
A
second
looks,
like
you,
have
an
amendment
drafting
code
6998.
Is
that
correct?
Yes,
sir?
Mr
chairman,
we
have
a
motion.
A
E
And
we
are
trying
to
work
towards
decoupling
that
now
there
are
some
federal
issues
and
reasons
that
we
can't
completely
decouple.
But
this
bill
would
reduce
the
taxes
on
jet
fuel
on
some
of
our
our
best
companies
here
in
tennessee
that
are
good
corporate
citizens
and
at
the
same
time,
would
fill
that
hole,
and
it
would
make
it
clear
that
it's
the
legislature's
intent
that
any
time
we're
reducing
that
fund
that
it
would
potentially
that
it
would
be
filled
with
recurring
dollars
to
those
airports
for
infrastructure.
E
I
will
also
tell
you
that,
in
this
amended
budget
that
I
know
we'll
be
hearing
over
the
next
few
weeks,
but
the
amended
and
proposed
budget
has
a
significant,
significant
sum
of
money
that
is
placed
in
the
budget
for
infrastructure
for
our
airports.
I
hope
that
we
all
will
fight
to
have
that
money
in
there
for
years
to
come
really
to
the
tune
of
about
40
to
50
million
per
year.
E
Now
that's
not
recurring
revenues
that
are
in
the
budget
this
year,
but
to
be
competitive
with
other
states,
that's
probably
about
the
numbers
that
we
need
to
be
at,
but
we
don't
need
to
be
robbing
peter
to
pay
paul.
I
mean
we
do
not
need
to
have
this
as
a
fee
based
service.
We
need
to
be
investing
in
those
airports
beyond
just
the
aviation
fund.
That's
set
up,
so
that's
what
this
bill
seeks
to
do.
A
All
right,
thank
you,
mr
sponsor
members.
We
are
still
on
the
amendment
drafting
code
6998
any
discussion,
chairman
williams,
you're
recognized
on
the
bill.
Okay,
we
are
still
on
the
amendment
any
discussion
on
the
amendment.
Seeing
none
we're
now
voting
on
the
amendment
699
6998
to
house
bill
773,
all
those
in
favor
say
aye,
all
those
opposed.
No,
the
eyes
have
it.
I
Thank
you
chairman.
Thank
you
leader
for
this
bill.
This
is
an
issue
that
has
come
up
since
this
is
the
third
time
since
I
got
elected.
My
concern
about
doing
this
is,
is
really
is
it's
who's
driving
the
bus?
I
Really
it's
one
thing
to
say
that
we're
going
to
fix
a
problem
when
I
think
we're
all
in
agreement
that
there
is
a
problem,
but
the
reason
why
we're
fixing
the
problem
before
the
last
time
and
the
reason
why
we're
fixing
a
problem
this
time
is
there's
one
person
who
needs
this
fix,
and
I
recognize
that
it's
very
important
for
that
one
entity
and
group,
and
they
have
been
a
really
good
corporate
sponsor
in
many
ways
and
have
had
challenges
in
the
past
as
well,
but
as
it
relates
to
this
bill,
the
reduction
that
we're
proposing
with
the
idea
of
putting
the
money
into
recurring
general
fund
dollars
still
does
not
close
the
gap
of
what
the
state
and
airports
have
come
to
expect
over
time,
and
so
my
concern
is,
is
that
we
continue
to
do
this?
I
Where
is
the
bottom?
I
mean?
Where
do
we
want
to
go?
You
know.
I
spoke
with
these
people
in
the
hall
the
other
day,
and
we
we
said,
oh
just
get
us
to
five
million
dollars
just
cap
us
at
five
million
dollars.
This
reduces
it
as
well
and
in
the
hallway
just
the
other
day,
they
said
well
kentucky's
at
a
million
dollars,
so
I'd
like
to
be
at
a
million
dollar
cap,
and
so
my
concern
is,
is
that
we
continue
to
to
do
this.
I
My
hope
is,
is
that
we
would
be
leveling
the
playing
field
and
really
helping
more
people
across
the
state
and
their
businesses
by
doing
this
and
reestablishing
a
reoccurring
fund
which
covers
not
just
the
loss
in
revenue
to
our
local
airports
and
generally
aviation
departments,
but
also
in
the
flowage
fees
regard
regarding
these,
because
the
flowage
fees
are
where
they
make
the
vast
majority
of
their
monies
at
the
airports
based
upon
the
frequency
of
flights.
I
E
E
As
far
as
the
funds
that
are
out
there,
the
only
way
that
they
can
really
succeed
it,
and
this
is
for
purposes
of
bonding
and
everything
else
is
if
we
tell
them,
look
you're
going
to
get
x
amount
of
dollars
per
year
and
the
legislature
is
going
to
stand
with
you
in
the
airport
aspect
of
this
but
20
years
ago.
What
they
did
is
they
said.
E
Well,
look
whatever
comes
in
the
fuel,
you
know
taxes
on
this,
that's
what
you're
going
to
get
well,
that
fluctuates
up
and
down,
and
it
is
just
not
reliable,
especially
in
a
year
like
we've
had
this
last
year.
So
if
we
don't
do
a
fix
like
this,
and
it's
it's
really
two
different
conversations,
I
mean:
how
much
do
we
tax
corporate
entities
that
are
here
that
have
invested
in
this
state
billions
of
dollars?
I
mean
honestly,
I
think
that
amount
should
go
down
even
potentially
all
the
way
to
zero.
E
E
That
absolutely
is
that
hole
is
filled
for
the
smaller
and
larger
airports,
but
the
only
way
to
get
to
where
you're,
where
you
would
like
to
hit-
and
I
think
the
same
way
I
would
as
well
is
to
say
we're
going
to
invest
x,
amount
of
dollars
from
the
general
fund
and
finally
say
that
our
small
airports
and
large
airports
need
those
infrastructure
dollars.
There
are
runways
that
are
closed
down
in
this
state
right
now,
because
we
have
have
really
linked
them.
Only
to
this
one
fund,
that's
not
appropriate.
It's
not
accomplishing
the
mission.
I
Chairman
williams,
I
think
it's
a
novel
idea.
I
think
the
challenge
that
it
relates
to
aviation
fuel
is
much
like
in
my
construction
business.
If
I
buy
a
certain
amount
of
building
material
every
day
that
the
the
state
doesn't
come
back
and
add
money
to
the
general
fund
to
pay,
you
know
for
that
lost
revenue.
That's
what
this
is.
I
mean
we
we're
saying
that
we're
uncoupling
or
doing
these
things,
but
in
fact
what
happened
is
we're
offsetting
the
cost
of
business
for
a
large
for
large
employers?
I
I
just
think
it
ought
to
be
a
level
playing
field
and
just
because
you're
big
doesn't
mean
your
expenses
should
be
smaller,
so
I
get
what
you're
saying,
but
it
is
it
is.
It
is
a
big
challenge.
We
have
ahead
of
you
and
I
appreciate
the
sponsor.
I
think
it's
a
discussion
that
I
look
forward
to
continuing
to
have
later
lambert.
A
Thank
you,
chairman
members.
We
do
have
a
guest
that
has
asked
to
speak
and
at
first
I
didn't
have
anybody
else
on
the
list.
Now
I've
got
several
speakers.
What
I'd
like
to
do
without
objection
at
this
time
is
go
out
a
session.
Let
our
guests
come
up,
have
an
opportunity
to
speak
and
that
may
you
may
have
an
opportunity
to
ask
some
questions
from
them
as
well.
So
at
this
time,
without
objection,
we're
going
to
go
out
of
session,
and
mr
I
may
mess
this
last
name
up.
A
J
Thank
you,
mr
chairman.
This
certainly
is
this
piece
of
legislation
in
the
budget
document
are
a
puzzle
and
we're
trying
to
put
all
the
pieces
together.
So
I
certainly
support
the
legislation.
The
most
important
thing
is
as
we're
having
the
conversation
as
we
look
at
the
fiscal
note,
the
fiscal
memo
to
tracking
6998
is
subsequent
years
year,
22
through
23
in
subsequent
years,
the
investment
that
we're
making.
So
this
is
not
just
a
one
or
two
year
promise.
J
This
is
a
numerous
year
promise
that
we're
making
to
create
a
reliable
fund
of
revenues,
and
I
will
say
that
there
are
other
opportunities
that
have
been
historically
funded
out
of
these
dollars.
There
is
a
flight
school,
that's
back
in
my
district
that
has
received
some
some
dollars
from
this
particular
fund,
so
there's
there's
lots
of
other
smaller
entities
beyond
just
our
our
passenger
airlines
that
are
airports
that
we've
got
across
the
state
of
tennessee.
I
think
this
is
a.
This
is
a
good
step
in
the
right
direction.
J
I
think
that
we,
as
a
legislator
biden
as
a
finance
committee,
going
forward
for
the
next
several
years,
need
to
focus
on
that
line
item
that
says
subsequent
years,
that
we
don't
just
do
this
once
twice
three
times
that
we
realize
that
this
is
an
ongoing
investment.
Thank
you,
mr
chairman
members.
Thank
you,
mr
chairman
representative,.
F
Todd.
Thank
you,
mr
chairman.
I
and
I
I
just
want
to
share
something
I've
shared
many
times
before
this
committee
and
others.
When
I
see
something
like
this,
my
mind
immediately
goes
to
one
thing:
businesses
don't
really
pay
taxes,
people
pay
taxes,
every
single
tax
or
fee
we
put
on
a
business
in
this
state
is
passed
down
to
the
end
consumer,
no
matter
what
every
single
time
so
keep
that
principle
in
mind
going
forward.
If
we
can
correct
some
things
like
this,
I
think
it's
a
really
good
thing.
Thank
you.
Thank
you,
representative
todd
leader.
B
Thank
you,
mr
chairman,
and
our
sponsor.
We
talked
about
this
before
last
week.
I
really
wanted
to
hear
the
amendment
we
adopted
an
amendment
that
was
not
going
to
eventually
be
the
bill,
and
so
the
thing
that
was
concerning
me
at
the
time,
which
I
believe
you
addressed
in
this
bill,
is
that
we
created
this
situation
where
these
smaller
airports
became
dependent
on
these
funds.
B
That
was
something
that
this
body
did
before
we
got
here,
but
we
created
it
as
a
state
and
so
to
me
it
crippled
our
smaller
airports
because
they
came,
they
became
dependent
on
that,
and
so,
when
the
farms
were
not
there,
there
were
things
that
they
wanted
to
have
done,
that
they
could
not
fund,
but
it
was
because
we
created
we
created
it.
Secondly,
the
state
has
to
decide.
B
Are
these
smaller
airports
important
enough
for
us
to
fund
if
the
money
is
in
the
general
fund
and
we
decide
how
to
utilize
these
funds?
Are
they
important
enough
for
us
to
do
that,
and
I
think
that,
with
the
amendment
we're
saying
that
we're
going
to
make
them
a
priority
by
funding
their
projects,
not
withstanding?
The
fluctuation
with
this
this
fund,
based
on
you,
know,
fuel
fuels,
and
we
created
this,
so
I'm
seeing
this
as
a
possible
solution
and
making
them
a
priority
independent
of
what
any
other
business
is
doing
in
this
state.
B
So
I
appreciate
you
know
you
hearing
me
on
trying
to
do
the
decoupling
and
making
it
a
priority,
and
I
look
forward
to
being
a
part
of
the
future
negotiations
as
we
move
forward
to
how
this
will
be
accomplished.
So
I'm
supporting
the
bill.
I
think
it's
a
good
bill.
I
think
it's
a
timely
bill,
we're
in
a
position
where
we
can
do
it
and
as
we
are
prioritizing
things
for
this
state
and
those
taxpayers
that
he
just
talked
about
the
time
is
now
and
we
need
to
do
it.
E
Thank
you
very
much
for
that
and
again
we.
That
is
exactly
what
we're
trying
to
do,
and
I
will
tell
you
I
have
asked
both
the
small
airports
and
large
alike
to
get
to
us
and
specifically
this
committee.
What
are
your
needs
because
for
far
too
long,
they
have
really
just
been
handicapped
and
joined
to
this
specific
fund.
So
what
are
the
needs
that
are
out
there,
specifically
even
some
one-time
funding
for
infrastructure
for
next
year
on?
How
do
we
get
all
our
runways
back
up
and
going?
E
Here
in
tennessee
I
mean,
if
you,
if
you
don't,
have
good
runways
and
airports
to
be
able
to
bring
in
passengers
and
cargo
in
the
world
that
we
live
in
right
now,
you
are
not
succeeding
as
a
state,
so
this
would
be
a
huge
step
forward,
but
with
lots
of
obstacles
to
watch
out
for
along
the
way
I
was
remiss,
I
did
not
say
both
of
the
co-sponsors
or
a
couple
of
co-sponsors
in
this
bill
are
here
all
three
with
leader,
gant
chairman
vaughn
and
chairman
white,
and
obviously
you
know
from
all
across
the
state.
A
Seeing
none
we're
now
voting
on
house
bill,
773,
moving
on
to
full
finance,
all
those
in
favor
say:
aye,
all
those
opposed.
No
the
eyes
have
it
house
bill
773
moves
to
full
finance
famous
chairman
members
of
the
committee.
Thank
you
all
right,
members
that
takes
us
back
to
item
number.
Four,
that's
going
to
be
chairman!
Faison
chairman
faison
you're
recognized
on
house
bill
119.,
you
have
a
motion.
A
second.
Please
continue
with
the
brief
description.
K
Thank
you,
mr
chair
committee,
very
good
to
be
with
you
and
mr
chair.
I
believe
we
do
do.
We
have
an
amendment
on
this
bill.
No,
we
don't.
We
do
not.
Okay
members,
this
bill,
we
currently
in
law,
have
a
thing
called
the
amber
alert.
So
if
a
child
goes
missing
immediately
throughout
the
state
of
tennessee,
we
can
tdot
and
department
of
safety
can
get
out
and
alert
all
across
tennessee
instantaneously.
K
We
I
several
groups,
including
the
alzheimer's
association
senior
citizen,
advocate
group,
say
it
would
be
so
beneficial
if
a
senior
citizen
went
missing
or
there
was
an
emergency
that
we
could
have
the
same
benefit
of
that.
Currently
it's
it's
kind
of
it
works
in
a
county.
A
sheriff
or
police
officer
could
get
it
out
locally.
But
if
we
pass
this
bill,
we'll
be
able
to
get
it
out
throughout
tennessee
instantaneously
and
call
the
silver
alert.
A
I
Thank
you,
I'm
not
going
to
talk
on
every
bill,
but
I
did
want
to
thank
the
chairman
for
this
bill.
My
grandmother
suffered
from
alzheimer's
very
important
for
the
family
to
know
that
when
they
go
to
the
grocery
store
and
leave
their
loved
one
at
home,
if
they
were
to
wander
far
from
the
house
that
there
is
a
process
by
which
we
can
help
loca
locate
them.
That's
what
this
bill
does.
I
A
A
K
I
almost
died
for
a
minute
house.
Bill.
189
would
allow
local
small
breweries
to
be
able
to
distribute
alcohol
beer
outside
of
their
county.
Currently
they
can
distribute
beer
in
their
county
and
if
they
decide
to
opt
into
this,
they
would
be
able
to
go
out.
It
would
take
them
from
being
able
to
produce
25
000
barrels
annually
to
1800
barrels
annually,
but
they
would
still
be
able
to
go
past
their
county
line.
A
All
right,
thank
you
very
much,
mr
chairman.
Any

brings
us
to
item
number
six
on
our
calendar
house
bill
648
by
chairman
faison,
sir
you're
recognized
you
have
a
motion
a
second.
Please
continue
a
brief
description.
Thank
you,
mr.
K
Currently,
in
in
our
court
system,
we
have
papers
called
original
process
papers.
Our
county
clerk
court
clerks
have
asked
us
to
make
it
to
where
they
can
do.
Everything
digitized
and
tim
people
ask
me
what
original
process
papers
are.
That's
the
warrants
or
subpoenas
they
have
to
keep
them
right
now
and
they've
created
an
immense
amount
of
space
to
be
able
to
store
all
these
warrants
and
subpoenas.
K
With
your
permission,
we
passed
this
bill
that
would
allow
them
to
digitize
those
documents
and
then
not
keep
them
most
of
our
courts
right
now.
Don't
even
use
paper
warrants
anymore,
they're,
all
digitized
now,
so
this
just
brings
us
up
the
current
standard,
and
this
is
requested
by
us
to
us
from
the
county.
Kirk

J
Thank
you,
mr
chairman,
and
you
need
to
give
a
shout
out
to
your
court
clerk
kevin
poe,
that's
right
in
in
jefferson
county
who
who
had
been
thinking
about
this

He
and
I
we
talked
about
a
year
ago

K
K
A
All
right
any
discussion
on
house
bill
646
by
chairman,
faison,
cnn
members,
I
think
to
let
you
know
this
bill-
is
ready
to
be
moved
out.
If
you
so
choose.
There
are
sufficient
revenues
approximate
amount
of
five
million
dollars
in
available
recurring
revenues
to
accommodate
adjustments
with
certain
components
of
existing
lottery,
funded
programs,
and
this
is
the
one
that
has
been
sent
to
us
for
consideration.
So
just
let
you
know
that
it
will
be
covered
if
you
so
choose
to
move
it
out.
A
So
with
that
any

seeing

we're

No,

house,
bill
419
is
a
bill
that.
L
A
L
You,
mr
chairman,
hospital
1304,
all
it
does,
is
it
makes
it
a
permissive
for
tenncare
to
cover
chiropractic
care
over
the
age
of
18..
Currently,
it's
just
covered
under
the
age
of
18.,
and
so
what
we're
going
to
try
to
do
is
move
this
bill
forward
and
find
funding
for
it.
A
A
A
Oh
yeah
chairman,
I
think,
yeah,
let's
back
up
for
just
a
second
here,
so
we're
on
house
bill
1304.
I
think
that
description
was
on
another
piece
of
legislation.
Let's
back
up
to
house
bill
1304
and
it's
property
before
us.
I
think
we've
had
about
three
motions
in
seconds
now,
so
I
think
it's
proper
before
us.
If
you
want
to
go
ahead
and
describe
that
one
I'll.
A
L
You
I'm
sorry,
it's
been
a
long
day
already.
1304
is
the
second
part
of
the
discipline
act
which
creates
a
mental
health
part
of
the
of
education.
Now,
governor
lee
has
just
put
forth
the
mental
health
trust
fund.
I
don't
know
if
this
is
going
to
be
one
of
the
vehicles
that
they
choose
to
run
with.
That's
why
I
bring
it
to
finance
to
make
sure
it's
in
the
proper
position,
but
it
just
addresses
mental
health
for
our
children
in
schools.
A
All
right,
thank
you
very
much.
Members
you've
heard
the
description
of
house
bill
1304.
Any
discussion
for
our
sponsor,
seeing
none
as
he
has
alluded
to
there
is
a
cost
associated
and
we
will
have
to
place
it
behind
the
budget
and
consider
it
a
later
date.
Thank
you
for
bringing
it
forward,
but
without
objection
house
bill
1304
behind
the
budget.
A
L
A
Right,
thank
you
very
much.
Remember
any
discussion
on
house
bill
419,
seeing
none
as
the
sponsor
again
has
alluded
to
there's
a
cost
associated
with
this
piece
of
legislation,
so
we
would
place
it
behind
the
budget
considered
a
later
date
without
objection
house,
bill
419
behind
the
budget,
and
that
brings
us
to
item
number
12
on
our
calendar
house
bill
777
by
chairman
zapicci.
L
You
chairman
and
members,
this
is
the
hold
harmless
bill
for
education
in
bep
that
we
we
are
running
from
governor
lee.
We've
been
working
on
this
legislation
since
the
special
session.
Basically,
let
me
tell
you
what
it
does.
It's
very
simple
for
the
2021-2022
school
year,
whatever
an
lea
has
received
from
the
state
of
tennessee,
they
will
receive
again
in
their
bep
funding
for
one
year
in
2223.
L
The
leas
will
be
required
to
stay
in
compliance,
making
sure
they
keep
their
attendance
records
true
and
see
the
normal
things
that
they
report
to
make
sure
that
they
will
generate
a
proper
number
for
the
bep
in
reality
for
the
22-23
school
year,
there
is
a
fiscal
note
of
8
million
dollars.
However,
in
the
governor's
budget
he
has
put
20
million
dollars
towards
this.
So
I'll
be
happy
to
answer
your
question,
mr
chairman,
thank.
J
Thank
you,
mr
chairman
chairman.
Thank
you
so
much
for
this.
This
is
critically
important
to
our
school
districts
back
home
as
we
we
look
at
numbers
over
over
the
next
12
months
on
behalf
of
our
school
systems.
Up
in
northeast
tennessee,
there's
even
concern
going
forward
the
next
five
years.
What
does
this
look
like?
What
are
we
looking
at
in
terms
of
those
students
who
red
shirted
early
on
the
pre-k
and
the
kindergarten
age
students?
J
What
about
those
students
at
older
grades
that
moms
and
dads
have
just
taken
out
of
the
system
and
something's
going
on
there?
So
so
this
is
a
issue
with
lots
of
depth
to
it
that
we
still
need
to
have
a
discussion
and
I'm
glad
we
can
take
care
of
it
for
this
one
year,
but
this
may
be
a
two
three
four
five
year
process
as
we
get
some
more
stability
in
those
numbers
there.
So
thank
you
chairman
sophie
for
doing
this.
Thank
you
chairman.
Well,.
A
B
You,
mr
chairman,
mr
sponsor,
you
mentioned
that
in
next
year
not
the
fiscal
year
we're
planning
for,
but
in
a
22-23
year
you
mentioned
something
about
funding
for
that
year
in
this
bill.
Can
you
explain
that
again
you.
L
Recognize
sir
great
question,
I
want
to
make
sure
I'm
clear
on
this.
We
will
be
taking
attendance
numbers
for
the
2020
21
school
year.
That's
getting
ready
to
finish
up
here
in
may.
Normally
those
attendance
records
are
used
for
funding
for
the
fall
session
coming
up
in
in
21
22..
L
This
bill
addresses
that
funding
measure
where
we
don't
know
how
many
children
are
going
to
be
coming
back
to
our
school.
So
we
wanted
to
hold
them
harmless
for
that
one
year
they
will
continue
to
take
attendance
like
they
normally
do
in
2122,
so
that
when
we
get
to
the
22-23
school
year,
the
attendance
numbers
are
accurate.
We
can
properly
fund
the
school
systems.
B
You
don't
see
you're
recognized,
you
don't
see
any
potential
to
not
be
prepared
to
fund
them.
B
A
whole
money
have
money
available
to
fund
them
if
the
numbers
aren't
as
accurate
as
we
think
they
might
be.
Let's
just
say
you
know
how
you
know
we
do
the
numbers
they
do,
but
we
still
see
that
there's
some
problems
that
you
know,
as
he
mentioned
the
concerns
for
down
down
years.
That
is
there
money
available
that
if
there
are
problems,
there's
money
a
set
aside,
that
we
can
still
fully
fund
them
at
the
prior
year,
which
would
be
this
2021-2.
A
L
If
I
understand
your
question
correctly,
you're
looking
out
in
the
future
for
22-23,
yes,
what,
if
we're
still
having
the
same
problems
right,
okay,
the
governor
has
put
aside
20
million
dollars
for
this
type
of
purpose.
However,
we're
only
using
8.9
million
dollars
of
it
so
in
in
reality
or
in
theory
also
there
should
be
money
set
aside
for
the
future.
L
However,
the
bigger
concern
that
we
have
in
education
is
that
if
there
are
children
that
have
been
sitting
out
of
our
schools
now
for
two
years,
we
have
a
greater
concern
going
forward
with
that.
How
do
we
get
them
caught
up
that
are
hitting
our
school
system?
That
could
potentially
be
two
years
behind
already,
especially
when
you
look
at
early
education,
which
is
our
main
focus,
we're
working
on
an
education
right
now,.
B
Thank
you
for
I
think,
mr
chairman,
thank
you
for
pointing
it
out,
because
that's
that
was
kind
of
the
point
that
that
I
was
making,
because
the
school
will
still
need
the
funds
to
be
able
to
support
those
children
and
to
give
them
the
services
and
the
training
and
the
education
of
everything
they
need
to
get
them
back
to
where
they
need
to
be.
And
I
want
to
make
sure,
there's
funds
available
for
that
that
they
could
use.
If
we
see
that
that's
a
problem,
so
it
appears
that
it's
in
the
budget
that
way.
L
It
is
available
for
possible
future
use.
Remember
all
of
our
lease
are
experiencing
4.2
billion
dollars
that
have
been
injected
into
all
of
our
school
systems
across
the
state
of
tennessee.
Just
off
the
top
of
my
head,
murray
county
is
going
to
receive
28
million
dollars
for
covet
health
to
address
the
issues
of
children
that
have
not
come
back
to
their
classrooms.
How
are
we
going
to
get
them
re
re-engaged
in
the
classrooms,
where
some
parents
may
just
decide
we're
going
to
stay
out?
How
do
we?
L
How
do
we
make
sure
that
that
child
gets
educated?
That's
where
all
this
coveted
money
has
to
be
put
to
proper
use,
and
then
we
need
to
make
sure
as
we
move
forward
when
we
see
the
results
from
testing
coming
up
this
year
and
moving
into
next
year,
remember
remember:
we
had
the
special
session
where
we're
going
to
have
summer
school
this
year,
we're
going
to
have
tutors
this
year,
we're
going
to
have
ongo
ongoing
tutoring
for
our
students
in
the
2122
school
year
to
make
sure
that
we
need.
A
A
C
Thank
you,
mr
chairman.
Thank
you
committee
members.
This
is
a
bill
that
would
deal
with
the
governor's
emergency
powers
if
he
creates
an
executive
agency
under
his
emergency
powers.
These
are
the
powers
that
we
granted
to
him,
not
powers
that
truly
rest
with
him
or
her
if
he
creates
a
a
new
executive
agency
under
that
power,
this
would
trigger
a
mechanism
for
it
to
go
to
gov
ops
for
a
review,
just
like
all
other
contracts
and
agencies
do.
A
I
I
just
thank
you
chairman
kirchy.
I
just
want
to
thank
you
for
this
bill.
Obviously,
we
have
seen
the
printing
machines
smoking
in
washington
dc.
This
gives
us
an
opportunity
to
make
sure
there's
some
kind
of
accountability
as
it
relates
to
how
we
spend
these
billions
of
dollars
they're
sending
to
us.
I
I
think
it's
important
we're
in
uncharted
territories
in
a
lot
of
ways,
as
it
relates
to
these
kind
of
revenues
coming
to
the
states
unencumbered.
This
bill
gives
the
level
of
accountability
that
many
in
this
committee
have
set
on
appropriations
subcommittee
and
heard
about
how
the
procurement
process
works
and
how
we
had
to
change
really
the
way
that
we
were
doing
it
because
of
covet.
I
think
this
bill
brings
the
level
of
accountability
that
that
is
necessary
and
if
this
were
to
happen
in
the
future
and
just
want
to
draw
attention
to
it.
I
A
Thank
you
further
discussion
on
house
bill
1347.,
seeing
none
we're
now
voting
on
house
bill,
1347,
moving
on
to
full
finance,
all
those
in
favor
say:
aye,
all
those
opposed,
no
the
eyes
have
it
house
bill
1347
moves
to
full
finance.
Thank
you
chairman.
Thank
you
committee.
Thank
you.
Item
number
14
on
our
calendars.
Also
by
chairman
curcio
house,
bill
1440,
you
have
a
motion.
A
second.
Please
continue
with
a
brief
description.
Thank
you.
C
Mr
chairman,
I'll
try
to
be
brief.
This
bill
really
actually
saves
the
state
about
8.6
million
dollars
every
year
that
it's
that
it
if
we
were
to
pass
it,
but
there
is
a
an
upfront
cost
and
it
saves
money
in
year
two.
Unfortunately,
so
I'm
continuing
to
work
on
that,
but
this
just
kind
of
separates
drug
dealers
from
drug
users
and
really
goes
after
those
drugs
that
are
that
are
vexing
our
state
right
now
and
opioids
and
fentanyl
and
those
sorts
of
things.
Thank.
A
A
A
C
Sir,
thank
you
committee.
This
this
bill
expands
our
expungement
statute
in
tennessee
right
now.
It's
working
very,
very
well.
We've
had
multiple
years
of
kind
of
experiment
there,
so
we're
just
building
on
some
of
that
success.
A
All
right,
maybe
you
heard
the
description
of
house
bill,
888
any
discussion
seeing
none.
We
are
now
voting
on
sending
house
bill
888
on
to
full
finance.
All
those
in
favor
say
aye,
all
those
opposed.
No
the
eyes
have
it
house
bill
888
moves
to
full
finance.
Thank
you
chairman,
thank
you
committee
and
chairman
curcio.
If
I'm
not
mistaken,
I
think
you
are
also
going
to
be
running
house
bill.
Well,
actually,
item
number
30..
A
C
A
You,
mr
sponsor,
and
it
does
have
a
fiscal
note
associated
with
it-
is
there
any
discussion
on
house
bill
1188,
seeing
none
due
to
the
cost.
We
will
have
to
place
it
behind
the
budget
and
consider
at
a
later
date.
So
thank
you
very
much
without
injection
house
bill
1188
behind
the
budget.
Thank
you,
chairman
committee.
All
right.
A
C
All
right,
thank
you,
mr
chairman
committee.
This
bill
was
brought
to
me
by
the
tennessee
school
board
association
and
it
encourages
joint
economic
and
community
development
boards
to
include
school
system
representation
and
also
allows
for
jecdbs
to
form
collaborative
partnerships
that
would
further
economic
growth.
We
thought
I'd
be
glad
to
answer
any
questions.
A
All
right,
thank
you
very
much.
Remember,
there's
any
discussion
on
house
bill
155,
seeing
none
we're
now
voting
on
house
bill
155,
maybe
going
to
full
finance
all
those
in
favor
say:
aye,
all
those
opposed,
no
the
eyes
have
it
house
bill
155
moves
to
full
finance.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
Sir
item
number
18
on
our
calendar
is
house
bill.
771
also
by
chairman,
hasten
sir
you're
recognized.
You
have
a
motion
a
second.
Please
continue
with
a
brief
description.
Thank
you,
mr.
C
Chairman
this
is
this
administration
bill
seeks
to
improve
the
registered
apprenticeship
system
in
tennessee
by
establishing
a
state
apprenticeship
agency.
Tennessee
will
be
the
27th
state
to
do
so
by
establishing
a
state
apprenticeship
agency.
It
will
streamline
the
apprenticeship
application
process
and
should
increase
completion
rates
with
that'll
be
glad
to
answer
your
questions.
A
All
right,
thank
you
very
much.
Members
you've
heard
the
description
of
house
bill
771
any
discussion
for
our
sponsor,
seeing
none
we're
now
voting
on
house
bill,
771,
moving
on
to
full
finance,
all
those
in
favor
say:
aye,
all
those
opposed.
No
the
eyes
have
it
house
bill
771
needs
to
full
finance.
Thank
you,
mr
chairman.
Thank
you
very
much.
A
G
G
So
what
exacerbates
that
is,
if
juries
reduce
a
first
degree
or
second-degree
murder
down
to
voluntary,
manslaughter
thinking,
they're
doing
a
good
thing.
The
judge
can't
tell
them
what
the
penalty
is.
So
it's
very
very
hard
to
explain
to
a
family
and
the
victim,
the
the
family,
the
family
of
the
victim.
G
They
lost
their
life
and
they're
only
going
to
get
three
to
six
years.
So
this
bill
bumps
voluntary
manslaughter
from
a
class
c
felony
up
to
class
b,
felony
where
it'll
be
and
that's
eight
to
twelve,
and
it
should
have
been
fixed
a
long
time
ago.
So
we
we
need
to
do
it
at
some
point.
That's
what.
A
The
bill
does
thank
you.
Chairman
halsey
remembers
any
discussion
on
house
bill
108.,
seeing
none
chairman
hulsey.
I
know
you've
been
working
very
hard
on
this
bill
and,
of
course
there
is
a
cost
associated
with
house
bill
108
and
look
forward
to
working
with
you
continuing
to
work
with
you
to
try
to
get
it
across
the
finish
line,
but
without
objection
house
bill
108
behind
the
budget.
A
That
brings
us
to
item
number
20.
item
number
20
on
our
calendar
is
house
bill
353.
This
is
actually
legislation.
That's
going
to
request
a
tasker
study,
so
without
objection,
we're
going
to
send
house
bill
353
to
the
tasker
study
calendar
to
be
that
date
will
be
released
at
a
later
time.
So
without
objection
house
bill
353
moves
to
the
tasker
study
calendar.
Thank
you.
A
D
You,
mr
chairman,
this
was
brought
to
me
by
the
human
trafficking,
the
tbi
human
trafficking
advisory
board.
It
got
caught
up
in
covid
last
year,
so
we're
bringing
it
back
this
year
under
present
law.
The
tennessee
standard
treatment
program
for
sex
offenders
requires
a
sex
offender,
submit
an
evaluation
for
treatment
developed
by
the
sex
offender
treatment
board.
Sex
offenders
who
require
such
evaluation
and
treatment
are
individuals
who
have
been
convicted
of
certain
sex
offenses,
including
rape,
rape
of
a
child
aggravated
rape,
solicitation
of
a
minor
and
sexual
exploitation
of
a
minor.
A
A
Seeing
none
thank
you.
I
know.
You've
worked
very
hard
and
several
years
on
this
now
chair
lady,
there
still
is
a
cost
associated
with
house
bill
341.
So
without
objection
house
bill
341
will
go
behind.
The
budget
brings
us
to
item
number
22.
item
number
22
is
house
bill
417.
Also
by
chair
lady
littleton.
Madam,
you
are
recognized.
You
do
have
a
motion.
Second,
thank.
D
D
Okay,
it
adds
the
definition
of
severe
child
abuse,
the
act
of
knowingly
allowing
a
child
to
be
within
a
structure
where
a
schedule,
one
controlled
substance,
cocaine,
meth
or
fentanyl-
is
present
and
accessible
to
the
to
the
child.
We're
seeing
now
that
children
are
picking
up
the
parents
drugs
and
there
was
a
four-year-old
that
they
actually
the
parents
actually
gave
it
opioid
fentanyl,
and
that
child
was
four
years
old
and
it
did.
It
did
die,
there's
a
nine
month
old
that
got
a
hold
of
this
dad's
fentanyl
and
he
didn't
make
it.
D
But
just
a
few
months
ago
here
in
donelson
there
was
a
four-year-old
that
got
his
dad's
heroine,
but
they
happened
to
have
some
narcan
in
the
car
that
took
two
things
of
narcan
for
the
child
to
survive,
but
I'm
sure
it's
got
some
damages,
but
that
child
did
make
it
so
we're
seeing
now
they're
not
just
exposed.
They
are
picking
up
the
drugs
and
ingesting
them.
A
Thank
you
for
this
description
members.
Any
discussion
on
house
bill
417,
seeing
none
there
is
a
cost
associated
with.
I
know
that
again,
another
piece
of
legislation
you've
worked
hard
on
does
have
a
cost.
We
will
have
to
place
it
behind
the
budget
to
be
considered
at
a
later
date.
Without
objection
house,
bill,
417
will
go
behind
the
budget.
A
C
Thank
you
very
much.
We
know
people
with
disabilities
are
a
key
factor
in
the
state's
ability
to
build
a
strong,
inclusive
workforce
that
translates
into
economic
success
and
quality
of
life.
So
this
bill
would
create
the
state
as
a
model
employer
or
same,
and
this
program
will
ensure
that
state
agencies
and
departments
design
and
implement
best
promising
and
emerging
policies,
practices
and
procedures
related
to
recruitment,
hiring
advancement
and
retention
of
qualified
individuals
with
disabilities,
and
it
would
be
administered
in
the
department
of
human
resources.
A
All
right,
thank
you
for
this
description
members.
Any
discussion
on
house
bill
112.,
seeing
none.
Thank
you
for
the
description.
Unfortunately,
there
is
a
cost
associated
with
house
bill
112,
so
we
will
have
to
place
it
behind
the
budget
and
consider
it
at
a
later
date
without
objection
house
bill
112
go
behind
the
budget.
Thank
you.
A
H
Thank
you,
mr
chairman
committee
house,
bill
542
is
the
middle
college.
Scholarship
program
middle
college
program
is
operated
by
a
two-year
post-secondary
institution
in
partnership
with
the
lea.
It
permits
students
in
the
fall
of
their
junior
year
in
high
school
to
enter
into
a
two-year
institution
and
earn
a
high
school
diploma
and
associate
degree
at
the
same
time.
H
In
two
years,
this
bill
would
raise
a
scholarship
fund
available
right
now
from
1
000
per
semester
to
1250
per
semester,
cost
about
2
000
per
semester
and
95
percent
of
the
students
that
complete
the
program
transition
to
a
four-year
institution.
So
they
have
a
great
rate-
and
we
just
had
in
my
county,
for
example,
a
19
year
old
that
just
got
accepted
into
medical
school
that
went
to
middle
college,
so
we're
very
proud
of
the
program,
and
with
that
I
renew
my
motion
and
be
glad
to
answer
any
questions.
Thank.
A
B
Thank
you,
mr
chairman.
Mr
chairman,
you
said
that
this
is
one
of
these
bills
that
t
heck
said
that
they
could
fund.
Is
that
what
I
hear
you
say?
Yes,.
A
I
do
I
have
one
in
front
of
me:
it's
it's
actually
by
t
heck,
it's
it's
not
really
a
funding
letter,
it's
just
identifying
to
us
that,
with
that
five
million
sweep
that
they
have
that
it
can
be
covered,
so
the
education
higher
ed
education
has
only
let
out
bills.
So
these
are
bills
that
are
going
to
be
before
us
that
they
recommend
for
passage
and
they're
watching
that
number
to
make
sure
that
they
can
qualify.
We
do
have
lou
well
yeah.
B
A
B
You,
mr
chairman,
mr
chairman,
I
just
wanted
to
make
sure
for
the
record
that
I
mean
in
the
past.
We've
said
that
we
had
to
have
a
funding
letter
with
you
know
people
verbally
commit
to
things,
but
I
want
to
make
sure
we
had
something
in
writing
for
them
so
that
you
know
the
next
time.
This
come
up.
We're
consistent.
I
see
it.
I
understand
we
have
it.
I
just
wanted
for
the
record
to
make
sure
that
we
had
we
had
the
document
in
front
of
us
got
one.
A
Absolutely
and
I'll
say
this
leader
camper,
as
we
do
receive
these
letters,
we
do
verify
with
fna,
and
so
this
one
is
ready
to
be
voted
on
again
vote
your
conscience,
but
if
you're
ready
to
move
it
forward,
it
is
ready
it's
in
the
proper
position
as
posture
as
far
as
funding
you're
recognizing.
Thank
you,
mr
chairman.
H
Chairman
and
I
do
have
a
funding
letter
here
from
t-heck
and
t-sac
that
identifies
the
middle
college
program
on
it.
Okay,.
A
Thank
you
members.
Any
further
discussion,
seeing
none
we're
now
voting
on
house
bill,
542,
moving
on
to
full
finance,
all
those
in
favor
say
aye,
all
those
opposed
say.
No,
the
eyes
have
it
house
bill
542
moves
on
to
full
finance.
Thank
you,
mr
chairman.
Thank
you
members.
We
do
have
a
request
that
house
bill
544
by
chairman
powers
be
rolled
one
week,
so
without
objection
house
bill
544
rolled
one
week.
A
A
K
Yes,
this
amendment
deletes
all
the
language
rewrites
the
bill.
Basically,
what
it
does
is
take
care
of
all
costs.
The
previous
note
indicated
some
uncertainty.
It
said
not
significant,
but
then
there
was
some
uncertainties
associated
with
it.
So
what
this
amendment
does
is
change
this
to
a
study,
a
one-year
study
for
the
public
utilities
commission
to
submit
a
written
report
to
the
speaker
of
the
senate,
the
house,
the
chair
of
commerce,
labor
of
the
house,
commerce
and
laborers,
I'm
sorry,
the
senate
and
the
house
and
government
operations
committee
of
both
chambers.
K
This
report
should
be
submitted
before
july
2022
so
that
when
I
come
back
before
you
with
the
bill,
those
uncertainties
will
be
resolved
and
with
that
explanation
I
stand
ready
for
questions
and
humbly
ask
for
your
support.
All.
A
Right,
thank
you
very
much.
Members
we're
still
on
the
amendment

all

No
the

We
are

on

and
you
have
heard
the
description.

A
A
H
Sir,
I
appreciate
you
appreciate
it.
This
bill
has
to
do
with
the
replenishment
of
the
unemployment
trust
fund.
The
amendment
that
you
see
in
front
of
you
we've
been
struggling,
the
calculating
the
effects
of
how
much
of
a
benefit
increase
that
we
can
tie
to
this
shortening
term
for
benefits
that
will
be
indexed
to
the
unemployment
fund
to
get
the
appropriate
replenishment
level.
We
started
off
at
50
per
recipient
that
did
not
produce
the
impact
to
the
unemployment
trust
fund
that
we
looked
at.
H
We
went
back
to
five
dollars
to
measure
that,
but
we
have
settled
in
at
a
sweet
spot
of
25
dollars
a
week
increase
in
benefits
for
for
the
users
of
the
system.
In
addition
to
that,
what
this
does
is
this
gives
the
department
of
labor.
This
amendment
allows
them
to
extend
their
implementation
to
december
1st
of
2023..
A
Thank
you,
mr
chairman
members.
Any
discussion
on
the
amendment
is
where
we
currently
stand
any
discussion
on
the
amendment.
Seeing
none
we're
now
voting
on
amendment
6977
to
house
bill
1039.,
all
those
in
favor
say
aye,
all
those
opposed.
No
the
eyes
have
it
house
bill.
We
are
back
on
the
house
bill
1039
as
amended
any
discussion
on
the
bill
as
amended,
seeing
none.
It
does
have
a
cost
associated
with
house
bill
1039,
so
we
will
have
to
place
it
behind
the
budget.
Consider
it
later
date
without
objection
house
bill
1039
behind
the
budget.
A
A
H
This
legislation
contemplates
the
ability
of
our
universities
across
the
state,
the
the
those
both
public
and
private,
to
comply
with
the
name,
image
and
likeness
ruling
by
the
federal
supreme
court,
where
they
ruled
that
ed
o'bannon
could
receive
compensation
for
the
use
of
his
name
image
and
likeness.
H
A
I
Yes,
chairman
vaughn,
I
really
appreciate
your
work
on
this.
I
had
the
opportunity
to
talk
to
you
about
it.
A
lot
I
do
do
have
one
quick
question:
would
memphis
state
be
able
to
use
your
likeness
as
it
relates
to
this
bill?.
H
H
Of
the
excuse
me,
do
you
recognize
of
the
athletes
themselves?
Back
in
the
day,
there
was
an
ncaa
2003
video
game
that
used
actual
players
names
in
it,
people
sell
jerseys
with
actual
players
names
on
it.
It
would
allow
them
to
endorse.
They
would
be
able
to
make
advertisements.
H
J
Thank
you,
mr
chairman,
and
chairman
vaughn.
I
know
you've
worked
hard
on
this.
When
we
were,
I
had
the
higher
ed
committee
last
year
we
were
having
broad
and
deep
conversations
about
this
as
well.
I
know
it
was
brought
up
in
jest,
but
is
there
a
retro
active
nature
of
this
legislation?
You
talked
about
the
the
video
game
from
all
those
years
ago.
Could
someone
go
back
and
say
hey
my
name,
image
and
likeness
was
on
that
video
from
20
years
ago.
Is
there
a
retroactive
nature
of
this
chairman
vaughn.
H
A
A
M
M
The
reason
we
do
that
there's
a
lot
of
requests
for
lottery
funds
and
we're
very
protected
by
those
lottery
funds,
because
we're
about
this
close
within
a
year
or
two,
I'm
being
told
where
that
will
be
self-sustainable
in
perpetuity
for
our
tennessee
promise,
our
hope,
scholarships,
and
so
there
we
have
like
we're,
told
that
as
long
as
we
don't
take
any
more
than
five
million
a
year,
then
we
won't
violate
that.
So
in
committee,
we,
the
committee,
voted
to
have
five
such
pieces
of
legislation
come
out.
M
471
was
one
of
those
and
what
this
does
it
allows.
It
allows
a
vo
tech
institution
in
memphis
to
participate
in
the
dual
enrollment
about
148
000
a
year
is
a
fiscal
note
on
that
and
and
having
said
that,
I
do
have
the
letter
that
puts
the
471
on
on
one
of
the
five.
So
thank
you
all.
J
Mr
chairman,
I'm
I'm
like
one
of
the
other
members,
I'm
kind
of
chatting
today.
I
guess
thank
you
very
much.
I
appreciate
that,
and,
and
just
as
we
recognize
this,
I
we
had
a
budget
supplemental
budget
appropriation
presented
to
us
yesterday
and
there's
some
increases
25
million
dollars
of
increases
that
we're
looking
at
relocating
some
lottery
dollars.
I
want
to
reiterate
that
these
dollars,
we're
talking
about,
are
lottery
dollars.
This
is
not
anything
to
do
with
online
sports
betting.
At
the
moment.
J
I
know
that
is
a
new
fund,
but
we've
been
very
cautious
not
to
create
a
stream
of
revenue
for
that-
and
I
say
that
for
selfish
reasons,
because
I
have
a
bill
up
here
in
about
30
spaces
that
we
may
talk
about
that.
So,
just
to
reiterate,
this
is
from
existing
lottery
funds.
Is
that
accurate?
That
is
correct?
Okay,
thank
you
chairman.
Thank
you.
Members.
A
Thank
you,
chairman,
hawk
further
discussion
on
house
bill
471,
seeing
none
we're
now
voting
on
sending
house
bill
471
on
to
full
finance,
all
those
in
favor
say:
aye,
all
those
opposed.
No
the
eyes
have
it
house
bill
471
moves
to
full
finance
item
number
29
on
your
calendars
house,
bill
74
by
chairman
white.
You
have
a
motion
to
second,
so
you
are
recognized
for
house
bill
74..
A
M
We
are
required
to
do
this
by
the
federal
government
to
have
an
intervention
plan
for
schools
in
our
state
that
are
that
consistently
stay
in
the
bottom
five
percent
or
priority
schools.
We
created
that
back
then,
each
each
of
the
yeah,
each
of
the
schools
that
were
taken
to
the
asd
had
a
10-year
contract.
M
But
one
thing
we
didn't
really
put
in
the
original
bill
is:
how
do
they
transition
out
within
10
years?
We're
now
coming
up
on
year?
Eight,
I
think,
we're
in
year
eight,
and
so
these
schools
are
time
to
transition.
So
this
bill
specifically
deals
with.
How
will
these
schools
transition
out
of
the
achievement
school
district?
There
have
been
many
successes.
M
There
have
been
some
that
have
been
failures
and
we
continue
to
work
on
this
model
on
how
do
we
bring
a
a
priority
school-
the
bottom
five
percent-
to
make
it
come
out
of
the
private
school?
So
what
this
particular
piece
of
legislation
does
is
this
lays
out
how
the
how
the
asd
schools
come
out?
There's
three
there's
three
pathways:
they
can
opt
to
return
to
the
lea
of
origin
that
authorize
them.
They
can
apply
to
the
the
state
charter
commission
that
this
general
assembly
got
set
up.
M
I
think
it
was
last
year
within
the
last
two
years,
which
is
formerly
the
state
board
now,
since
the
state
charter
commission,
or
they
can
remain
under
the
guidance
of
the
asd,
is
60
of
the
parents,
which
is
already
law,
have
a
petition
in
ops
said
we
like
our
neighborhood
school.
We
want
to
keep
it
as
it
is,
so
those
are
the
three
pathways
for
these
asd
schools
to
to
come
out
from
under
the
asd
moving
forward,
and
with
that
any
borrowing,
any
questions.
I
renew
the
motion.
A
All
right,
thank
you
