No one spoke.

That was good.

My first two bills were heard on the House floor today.

Shortly before the session began, the Republican minority leader commended me for the bipartisan support for my bill criminalizing actions by either side during a referendum signature drive.

The second bill would outline how money should be spent for survivors of homicide victims.  None of the drama surrounding the death penalty repeal bill itself this time.

Since both bills were unamended, there was no need to explain changes made by the committee.

In the House of Delegates, you don’t draw attention to your bill once it gets to the floor.

You do that after you’ve gotten at least 71 votes – a majority, on the tally board.
