All right, members, this is the first time in seven sessions
that I've ever had the distinguished honor of making this motion, and it just so happens to fall on a date when the journal reflects a bill of mine dying on thirds. So I'm totally cool with everyone voting no and erasing that unfortunate result from the annals of our esteemed history. But alas, I am duty bound. So, Madam Speaker, I reluctantly move that the journal of Thursday, April 2nd, 2026, be approved as corrected by the chief clerk.
And regretfully Representative I need to say that members you have heard the motion that the journal be approved as corrected by the chief clerk All those in favor say aye All those opposed no The no have it The ayes have it. The motion is adopted. Members, announcements.
