In The Chair: Pohutsky
Rep. Martin, having reserved the right to explain his protest against the passage of the bill, made the following statement:
“Mr. Speaker and members of the House:
This bill does little to actually fix an issue with military members. We should be focused on bi-partisan bills to strengthen school safety.”
Rep. Schuette, having reserved the right to explain his protest against the passage of the bill, made the following statement:
“Mr. Speaker and members of the House:
I voted against SB 388 because I felt the bill had been given inadequate deliberation in the House of Representatives. I was unable to hear from the bill sponsor why this change was necessary. Neither the provided bill analysis nor supporters of the bill could point to instances where this bill would have resolved an issue. Further, they did not provided evidence that harm would be caused without the change mandated by this bill. Without such evidence or further deliberation, I did not feel it appropriate to vote for this legislation at this time.”
