Would like to see 6-0. Expect to see 5-1. I hope they surprise me.

Senator Gary Carter has taken a voluntary leave of absence from the committee.

quote:

Carter issued a statement saying that, for the betterment of the committee and to help restore decorum, he’s taken a voluntary leave of absence from the Senate and Governmental Affairs Committee.

Carter says his voice in the legislative process will remain strong and unwavering

I'll be shocked if there's a quorum for the committees to vote tonight

I left downtown around 3:30 and parking was at a premium around the capitol.

Checking the legis streaming, no rooms are broadcasting.

Senator Jenkins just said a 6-0 map will not come out of this committee.

What does that mean?

They're not discussing them today. Probably will be discussed another day.

I doubt Price's bill makes it out of committee but if it does, it'll die on the floor

If they’re not heard today they’re not going to be heard.

My prediction is they send BOTH of the bills under consideration to the floor.

They're definitely going to be heard, the committee speaker said they were only going to bring up these two tonight due to the request of speakers on each.

I like Price’s map

Should also add, I haven’t seen any other maps.
