Deferred A legislative instrument scheduled for hearing by a committee may be voluntarily deferred upon the request of the author. An instrument voluntarily deferred without objection may be rescheduled for committee hearing. A legislative instrument is involuntarily deferred when so ordered by a vote of a majority of the committee members present and voting, notwithstanding the request of the author. An involuntarily deferred instrument may be rescheduled for a committee hearing (after opportunity for hearing all other House instruments requested to be heard) only by motion adopted by the vote of two-thirds of the committee members present and voting. (House Rules 6.9 and 6.10)


I don't see this coming back in committee (or making its way to the floor)

So now... during a transition bill discussion... Peterson wants to know why St. George wants to incorporate at all.

The fact that this woman has a title of “senator” is laughable.

"what services would you take over?"

"well... zoning."

"I know. I know how it works."

"Okay..."

On the "whole parish gets to vote" bill? Involuntary. It's effectively dead.

I appreciate them trying to discuss the bill at hand which is the "if". But I agree that they need to nip this. She's just pandering.

I feel like she's trying to goad them into saying this is ultimately about schools and they're not taking the bait.

Yeah, I thought this bill was about how to separate the taxation in the period between any successful vote to incorporate and the time at which any new municipality could bring its own tax measures to vote.

What does the motivation of the people who live in that area have to do with taxation?
