Some more of this today. House currently trying to decide if #SB731 is relevant to the call of session.

#SB731 is the right to privacy regarding #CovidVaccine status.

🚨Update on #SB731🚨

The #arleg House has voted to hear #SB731, despite the DFA testifying that the federal #covid relief funds CANNOT be used in the context of the bill. #arpx #arnews

Rep. Ray says that #SB731 will cause more issues; he says that this is creating a new protected class in #arpx law.

This extended session has really reviled rips within the #arleg GOP.

The #arleg Senate has reconvened.

So far Ballinger has been at the well yelling, essentially threatening the Senate to pass the Emergency Clause on #SB739. He’s running #SB731.

#arpx #arleg #arnews

#SB731 has passed, but the emergency clause has failed.

Hammer is up next; still trying to get #HB1977’s emergency clause passed. #arpx #arleg

#HB1977’s emergency clause has failed.

#HB1982 is up next; but remember, the emergency clause failed yesterday in the House.

House is back. #HB1982 is up for a vote. Rep. Speaks is explaining all the changes that have been made. #arpx #arleg #FairMapsAR

Lots of discussion about the impact of #HB1982 and what it will do to communities of color. Remember, the two slivers of Pulaski that are being cut out of the 2nd are 65% and 70% nonwhite.

@tippi31

@tippi31 brings up the fact that it’s been hard for #arleg to keep up with meetings, so to expect the public to do so is not right. #arpx #arnews #FairMapsAR

#HB1982 is up in H-Stage Agencies now. #FairMapsAR #arleg #arpx

Watch live:

sg001-harmony.sliq.net/00284/Harmony/…

#HB1982 has passed out of H-State Agencies; remember, the senate companion bill failed today. #arpx #arleg #FairMapsAR

Rep. Beck makes a motion to go back to the original process of ranked choice voting when it comes to maps.

The motion fails.

#arleg House update:

Rep. Speaks attempted to amend #HB1982 (companion to #SB743) but the amendment failed.

#SB739 (companion to #HB1977) has been put on hold until the Senate figures out the emergency clause situation.

House is in recess for 10 minutes. #arpx #arnews

The #arleg House is back; currently trying to decide whether or not to send #HB1977 back to the Senate. #arpx #arnews

An official motion is made to send #HB1977 back to the Senate.

Rep. Jeans asks his House colleagues not to play Senate games and not to send it back. He says the Senate will hold up extended session for days if the bill is sent back. #arpx #arleg #arnews

Senate Session has come to order. Bills on the agenda include #SB731 and #SB743.

#FairMapsAR #arpx #arleg

Sen. Irvin has filed another map #SB744. It has been sent to State Agencies.

#SB743 is up; Sen. English has another amendment for the map… but she can’t explain what the technical corrections are. #arpx #arleg #FairMapsAR
