Thank you, Mr. President. A matter of personal privilege.

Don Harmon (D)

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Please state your point, Senator.

Carole Pankau (R)

It has come to my attention that my seatmate, Senator John Millner, is celebrating his birthday today. And let me just say that he is past the big "six zero" mark. So -- and there's a cake down on the first floor. So, after the Governor's speech and before you head home, you gotta scoot by, get a little piece of cake, say happy birthday to Senator John Millner.

Don Harmon (D)

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) 2 STATE OF ILLINOIS 97th GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 77th Legislative Day 2/1/2012 Happy birthday, Senator Millner. We will now proceed to the Order of Resolutions Consent Calendar. With leave of the Body, all those resolutions read in today will be added to the Consent Calendar. Madam -- Mr. Secretary, have there been any objections filed to any resolution on the Consent Calendar?

Scott Kaiser

No objections have been filed, Mr. President.

Don Harmon (D)

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Is there any discussion? If not, the question is, shall the resolutions on the Consent Calendar be adopted. All those in favor, say Aye. Opposed, Nay. The Ayes have it. The motion carries, and the resolutions are adopted. Senator Hutchinson, for what purpose do you seek recognition?

Toi W. Hutchinson (D)

Thank you, Mr. President. Matter of personal privilege.

Don Harmon (D)

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Please state your point, Senator.

Toi W. Hutchinson (D)

I know that Senator Trotter told me not to do this, but he was celebrating a birthday this week. So when you see him, when Donne Trotter comes on the Floor, when you see him, please be sure to say, "Happy birthday, our dear Senator". He is one of the longest-serving Members we have on this Floor and we really want him to have an excellent birthday week. Thanks.

Don Harmon (D)

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Are you sure he's not celebrating Senator Millner's birthday? Senator Hunter, I'm sorry, for what purpose do you seek recognition?

Mattie Hunter (D)

3 STATE OF ILLINOIS 97th GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 77th Legislative Day 2/1/2012 Point of personal privilege, Mr. President.

Don Harmon (D)

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Please state your point, Senator.

Mattie Hunter (D)

Senator Trotter, he was probably celebrating not only his birthday, but Millner's as well, knowing the way he loves to festivity -- festival occasions. But, what I'd like to do is make an -- make an announcement that our Minutes Clerk, Mr. Josh Tippin, today is his last Session day. Josh has been with us for about eleven and a half years. He started out as a Page and he worked himself all the way up to a Minutes Clerk. And he's moving on, out of government, into the private industry, and I'd just like to say, Josh, it was a pleasure working with you and I wish you the best of luck and a wonderful future. And let's say goodbye to Josh.

Don Harmon (D)

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Senator Maloney, for what purpose do you rise?

Edward D. Maloney (D)

Point of personal privilege, Mr. President.

Don Harmon (D)

PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR HARMON) Please state your point, Senator.

Edward D. Maloney (D)

In -- in what has become almost a happy monthly announcement, although he's busy right now, I'd to tell everybody that Senator Haine and his beautiful wife, Anna, received a new grandchild night before last. Her name is Luci. And this is Bill and Anna's twenty-first grandchild. So I was happy to…
