Official Thread for TN House / Senate Override of HB0962 Gubernatorial Veto

[mcurrier]

This should take about 30 minutes.

[Wingshooter]

Sounds like he is auctioning him off

[Fallguy]

Why does he speak using two notes?

I think he is much used to bellowing out bill info etc.. to Senators than reading memorials......

[Guest pws_smokeyjones]

The Governor is out of the loop if this bill is approved by the Senate, but we do have to wait until both Speakers of the House and Senate have signed the bill to become law. It may take a couple of days.

Both speakers have already signed it originally , I am pretty sure they don't have to again. If they did, then we would still be holding for the House speaker signature before the Senate could touch it.

sure does!

[Guest HexHead]

He must be a lawyer. I hear they get paid by the "Whereas".

[titan14]

Holy Crap this IS brutal...

[Wingshooter]

If it wasn't for all the BS that is unnecessary, as far as I'm concerned, a

lot more could get done that could help people more.

Lord. 5 NOW 5 DO i HAVE GIMME 10 GIMME 10 GIMME 10! SOLD TO THE MAN WITH THE FAKE MOUSTACHE!

[Guest HexHead]

Oh, that was Sen. Henry? Doddering old fool. I think he's spent too much time at those honky tonks downtown trying to forget the troubles of the day.

[Fallguy]

Dan was a pretty good guy actually.....

So what is it that you think may not get done, because they take time to honor someone?

I could be mistaken, but I'm pretty sure they both have to sign it again... And back before it went to the Governor, the bill sat on the Speaker of the House desk for a day or two waiting on his signature. If I get a few minutes today I'll do the research on TN veto overrides, but I'm pretty sure they must sign some official paper work before this bill becomes law. Also, keep in mind that while this was passed first in the House it didn't need to, it could in theory have been brought up in the Senate first.... So the Senate taking this up today is not technically because they were waiting on the House.

[Guest marine77]

Excuse my stupidity, but who was the guy? Don't mean nothing to me.

Popular newscaster here in Nashville, been around here for years.

I'm kinda amazed at how some members here think that just because this bill is important to us it should have tip-top priority. You have waited what, 13 years? You'll wait 15 minutes.

[Guest marine77]

Honor who? If it was somebody with a household name, yeah. Just

because he did this and everybody liked him, yada, yada. Hey, how come

members of your family or my family haven't been honored by the Senate,

why would you want them to? It's stupid IMHO.

[mightymouse]

There is that huge hat again!!

NO I WILL NOT!

Wait, what do you mean I don't have a choice?

Dangit.

It's just the latest in the long line of delays......

LOL

This is the way it is done. They introduce guest, do memorials, do other announcements like this and recognitions at the beginning of every session. The house does it as well. Just part of it.
