The House assembled at 10:00 a.m.
Deliberations were opened with prayer as follows:

Lord God, how inclined we are in focusing on things lacking in our lives. It is easy to complain about demands made upon us, to fret about our disappointments, and thus miss the blessing of living. Grant us Your help, then, to live this day and every day with thankful hearts, to take a grateful look at the good things in our lives and in the world around. Be merciful to our mistakes, forgive our wrongs, and help us celebrate our accomplishments. Give us the determination to make our public worship to shape our public lives. Amen.

After corrections to the Journal of the proceedings of yesterday, the SPEAKER ordered it confirmed.
