00:56:49.940 --> 00:56:53.470 align:middle line:84% And that has significant impact on every one of our districts. 00:56:53.470 --> 00:56:56.530 align:middle line:84% So it's only right that we have an appropriate amount of time 00:56:56.530 --> 00:56:58.900 align:middle line:84% to give these items the proper consideration 00:56:58.900 --> 00:57:01.150 align:middle line:84% that they deserve for

00:57:56.350 --> 00:58:00.280 align:middle line:84% are incredibly complicated and require our due diligence. 00:58:00.280 --> 00:58:01.990 align:middle line:84% It is my opinion that it is only right 00:58:01.990 --> 00:58:04.990 align:middle line:84% that each consolidated amendment should include one subject 00:58:04.990 --> 00:58:07.540 align:middle line:84% matter for our consideration, and we

members. 00:58:52.320 --> 00:58:54.840 align:middle line:84% As we know, the budget is perhaps the single biggest 00:58:54.840 --> 00:58:57.750 align:middle line:84% document and issue that we take up in any given year. 00:58:57.750 --> 00:58:58.750 align:middle line:90% [BANGING GAVEL] 00:58:58.750 --> 00:58:59.250 align:middle line:90% 00:58:59.250 --> 00:59:01.540 align:middle line:84% Chair apologizes to the gentleman at the microphone. 00:59:01.540 --> 00:59:03.630 align:middle line:84% Chair will respectfully ask the members to please 00:59:03.630 --> 00:59:05.550 align:middle line:90% subdue their conversations. 00:59:05.550 --> 00:59:07.899 align:middle line:84% Chair recognizes Mr. Jones of North Reading. 00:59:07.899 --> 00:59:10.190 align:middle line:84% Thank you, Mr. Speaker, and through you to the members. 00:59:10.190 --> 00:59:12.540 align:middle line:84% And as I was saying, we all know that in any given year, 00:59:12.540 --> 00:59:16.230 align:middle line:84% the budget is the single biggest issue that we take up. 00:59:16.230 --> 00:59:18.360 align:middle line:84% And obviously, it's been a process 00:59:18.360 --> 00:59:21.210 align:middle line:84% for many weeks and months now, arriving at the House Ways 00:59:21.210 --> 00:59:23.250 align:middle line:90% and Means recommendation. 00:59:23.250 --> 00:59:25.720 align:middle line:84% And members only have a very short amount of time. 00:59:25.720 --> 00:59:27.570 align:middle line:84% So essentially, this amendment would 00:59:27.570 --> 00:59:30.060 align:middle line:84% take the time between today and the beginning 00:59:30.060 --> 00:59:32.940 align:middle line:84% of a debate on Monday the 23rd and split it 00:59:32.940 --> 00:59:36.540 align:middle line:84% so that the members have half that time to file amendments, 00:59:36.540 --> 00:59:39.420 align:middle line:84% and then essentially the staff have half that time 00:59:39.420 --> 00:59:41.790 align:middle line:84% to categorize and analyze those amendments 00:59:41.790 --> 00:59:44.890 align:middle line:84% to make recommendations to the chair and to the leadership. 00:59:44.890 --> 00:59:49.467 align:middle line:84% So I think this is a reasonable approach to balancing the time 00:59:49.467 --> 00:59:51.050 align:middle line:84% and giving the members the opportunity 00:59:51.050 --> 00:59:53.900 align:middle line:84% not only to understand what's in the document, 00:59:53.900 --> 00:59:57.920 align:middle line:84% to meet with interested parties, and to craft their amendments 00:59:57.920 --> 01:00:01.760 align:middle line:84% so that we can have a thorough and open and frank debate when 01:00:01.760 --> 01:00:03.990 align:middle line:84% we start debate on the Monday after school vacation. 01:00:03.990 -->
