The House assembled at 10:00 a.m.
Deliberations were opened with prayer by Rev. Charles E. Seastrunk, Jr. as follows:

Our thought for today is from Daniel 10:12: "Do not fear...your words have been heard, and I have come because of your words."
Let us pray. Dear God, help us to know that when we call You are listening to us. Help us to acknowledge that You give us hope along with the promise of deliverance. When fear comes, assure us of Your protection and care. Bless our Nation, our President, our State and her leaders. Protect our defenders of freedom and keep them safe. Hear our prayer, O Lord. Amen.
