PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HALVORSON) Senator Jacobs, for what purpose do you rise?

Denny Jacobs (D)

Thank you, Madam President, Ladies and Gentlemen of the Senate. We have a commitment, and we had one slip by, that any pension bills coming out of Insurance and Pensions would be held on 2nd until which time they -- they had went through Pension Laws and we had a chance to review them. We did move one and we’ll see what we can do about that. But to anyone else who is thinking about moving any of the pensions bills that have come out of Insurance and Pensions, I would request that they hold ‘em until we get ‘em through Pension Laws.

Debbie DeFrancesco Halvorson (D)

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HALVORSON) Senator Brady, for what purpose do you rise?

Bill Brady (R)

For the purpose of a question of Senator Jacobs regarding the issue of discussion. Senator Jacobs, since you and I talked a couple of minutes ago, Senator Cullerton moved two additional pension bills to 3rd Reading. 1151 and 1152.

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HALVORSON) Senator Jacobs.

That -- that we’ll make an attempt with the -- the sponsors to correct. I just wanted to make the announcement on the Floor because we hadn’t had the opportunity to do it. It appears that communications in this place is not as good as we’d all like to have it be sometimes. But it’s my fault. I take the responsibility and we’ll try to correct those errors.

Debbie DeFrancesco Halvorson (D)

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HALVORSON) Senator Brady.
