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 6:26b: "For He is the living God, enduring forever."

Let us pray. Almighty God, we are truly rich because of what You continue to do for us as Your children. Keep us from wandering away, make us faithful, loving, dependable, and gentle as we serve the people of this State. Bless our defenders of freedom and first responders as they protect us. Grant Your blessings and peace for our Nation, President, State, Governor, Speaker, staff, and all who work to keep us well and safe. Heal the wounds, those seen and those hidden, of our brave warriors who suffer and sacrifice for our freedom. Lord, in Your mercy, hear our prayers. Amen.
