"House will come to order. Members will be in their seats. The Chaplain for today will be the Reverend Lawrence Athorn, Pastor of Waltham Presbyterian Church of Utica. Reverend Athorn is a guest of Representative Peg Breslin. Will the guests in the gallery please rise and join us in the invocation?"
"Let us pray. Our Father in Heaven, as we pray for Your blessings upon the Hembers of the House, we are not unmindful of those in the gallery who join us in this prayer. We give thanks, first of all, for the youth of our state and nation, the leaders of tomorrow, who are graduating from our schools and colleges during this time. We thank You for their faith in us and in America and we pray that nothing done or said in this place shall cause them to think any less of our institutions of government or of us. Challenge them, we pray, with the vision of good citizenship and a love for all that is good in our state and nation and with a fervent desire to make it even better. O Lord, let us not be afraid of new ideas and new thoughts, lest we pull down the shades of our minds and exclude newness of life. When confronted by the unknown. help us to remember that we do not have to explain all we know ог understand all we believe. Give us the grace of humility and the spirit of an open mind, the courage to persist in face of difficulties and a steady confidence in the truth. O God, help us to care about the little people who have no lobbyists, for the minority groups who sorely need justice. May it be the glory of our government that not only are the strong heard, but also the weak; not only the powerful, but also the helpless; not only those with influence, but also those who have nothing but a case and an appeal. Father, deliver us from the fear of what might 1 STATE OF ILLINOIS 84th GENERAL AS SEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 123rd Legislative Day June 3, 1986 happen and give us the grace to enjoy what now is and to keep striving after what ought to be, that we may put our hearts into our work and that our work may get into these hearts of ours. Amen."

"Representative Vinson, for what reason do you rise?"
"Inquiry of the Chair, Mr. Speaker. It was somewhat difficult to listen to the Bill numbers enunciated by the 8 STATE OF ILLINOIS 84th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 123rd Legislative Day June 3, 1986 Clerk. I had the impression that a couple of those Bills that he was apparently reading for the first time were Bills that are already carried on the list for Rules Committee today. Is that true? Were we double reading Bills that... for a first time?"
"Representative Vinson, that's correct."
"We were reading... we were reading Bills a second time for the first time? Is that what we were doing? And if so, I mean, I understand that we've got to be slow and methodical, but do we really... Are we going to read Bills for the second time a second time and for a third time a second time?"
"Representative Vinson, I wasn't paying any attention to what you said. I... I'm sure it was funny."
"Well, as I understand it, you confirmed that we had just read a set of Bills..."
"That's correct."
"... for the first... for the first time a second time."
"No, we just read those Bills for the first time."
"The first time the first time?"
"That's right."
"Now... But those Bills are in Rules Committee? How could they've got in Rules Committee if the haven't been read a first time, I guess then is my inquiry."
"What's your inquiry?"
"Those Bills are in Rules Committee?"
"Well, there's a Motion to suspend the provisions of Rule 20(k) so the Committee on Rules may hear the Senate Bills which were read on First Reading today. It's my understanding that your side would not go along with that, so the Motion will probably not be put, and, therefore, the Bills will not be heard in rules. But, clearly, we have to 9 STATE OF ILLINOIS 84th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 123rd Legislative Day June 3, 1986 waive the rules in order for them to be heard."
"Okay, but you were... somehow those Bills got to Rules without having been read a first time. Is that..."
"No. No, they were... They were posted with a... for an informational with a note that the Gentleman, Representative Matijevich, would file a Motion to waive the provisions of Rule 201k)."
"I see."
"Now, again, it's my understanding that your side does not want to go along with this and, therefore, the Motion will not be made and we will not have those Bills heard in Rules."
"Thank you."
"Sure. Representative Vi... Representative Vinson, to further try to answer your question, there were about 70 Bills read in today and without a waiving the rule requirement, they cannot be heard in Rules today. And, therefore, we will post them for a Rules Committee hearing on Friday of this week. Representative Friedrich."
"Well, I thought Representative Vinson might explain why the Republicans are objecting to the procedure of the Speaker."
"Thank you. Representative Leverenz."
"Mr. Speaker, I would like to suspend the appropriate rule to hear Senate Bill 1841 in the Appropriations I Committee tomorrow and Senate Bill 1736 this afternoon in the Appropriations I Committee also."
"The Gentleman has moved to suspend the appropriate rule so that those two Senate Bills could be heard in Appropriations Committee. Any objections? Hearing none, the appropriate rules are waived and the two Bills mentioned will be heard this afternoon and tomorrow. Representative Flinn." 10 STATE OF ILLINOIS 84th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 123rd Legislative Day June 3, 1986
"Mr. Speaker, I would like to announce the Financial Institutions... I think I need some attention here, first."
"Could the Gentleman have your attention?"
"There are a number of Members that are not listening."
"Could the Gentleman have your attention? Thank you."
"I would like to announce that the Financial Institutions will not meet this afternoon. The Sponsor was kind enough to postpone his Bill till next week."
"Who was the Sponsor, Mr. Flinn?"
"Me."
"Representative Richmond."
"Thank you, Mr. Speaker and Ladies and Gentlemen of the House. The House Ag Committee also will not be meeting this afternoon. We have one Bill and that Sponsor has graciously consented to postpone the Bill till next week."
"Who was the Sponsor on that?"
"I am."
"Thank you. Representative Steczo."
"Thank you. Mr. Speaker. The Cities and Villages Committee also will not meet this afternoon. We, too, have one Bill and the Sponsor has graciously indicated that he would like that heard next week."
"Representative Leverenz."
"Mr. Speaker, to announce that the Appropriations I Committee tomorrow morning will meet at 9:00 a.m. rather than 8:00 a.m."
"9:00 a.m. instead of 8:00 a.m. for Appropriations. Thank you."
"Thank you."
"Further announcements. Representative Vinson."
"Mr. Speaker, this mumbling has gotten out of hand. I 11 STATE OF ILLINOIS 84th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE June 3, 1986 123rd Legislative Day wonder if you could ask the people who are making these announcements to clearly articulate."
"Yes. There's only one final announcement and that is that because the Republicans have not agreed to waive the appropriate rules for Rule Committee, the Rules Committee this afternoon will be cancelled. Representative Giorgi moves the House now stands... now stands adjourned until tomorrow at the hour of 4:00, 4:00 p.m. The House now stands adjourned until the hour of 4:00 p.m. All those in favor of the Motion signify by saying 'aye', opposed 'no'.
