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 Luke 1:49: "For the Mighty One has done great things for me."

Let us pray. Gracious and compassionate Lord, help us to see You at work in the world and then, by example, let others see what we've seen in Your love for each of us. When it seems too hard to wait for You to act, strengthen us with patience. O Lord, bless and protect our Nation, President, State, Governor, Speaker, staff, and all who labor in these Halls of Government. Protect our defenders of freedom as they protect us. Heal the wounds, those seen and those unseen, of our brave warriors. Hear us, O Lord. Amen.
