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 Proverbs 1:20: "Wisdom cries out in the streets; in the squares she raises her voice."
Let us pray. Almighty God, source of all wisdom, call to us all, wise children. Direct these Representatives to do and say the words and actions in order for the people in their districts understand what is done and said. Provide for these women and men the wisdom, courage, strength and integrity as they deal with those items on the agenda that are vitally important to the people whom they serve. Guide each by Your hand of compassion and strength. Bless our Nation, President, State, Governor, Speaker, this Honorable Assembly, and all who labor in these Halls of Government. Protect our defenders of freedom at home and abroad as they protect us. Hear us as we pray, O Lord. Amen.
