Kiesling told the House the team’s first‑ever state title reflected the players’ work and the community’s support. She singled out seniors for their leadership and urged underclassmen to build on the victory. Senator Yeager congratulated the team on the statewide recognition during brief remarks on the floor.

Coach Kyle Shoulders addressed the chamber and thanked Representative Kiesling, Senator Yeager and others who helped arrange the visit. Shoulders described Macon County as a small, close‑knit community and said the team’s motto of “together” captured the season’s effort. He also apologized playfully for arriving late to the Capitol because of parking and thanked the House for the honor.

Representative Kiesling invited the team and coach to pose for a photo on the House floor following the recognition.","Representative Kiesling and Senator Yeager brought the Macon County High School football team and coach Kyle Shoulders to the House chamber to recognize the program's first TSSAA 4A state championship on Dec. 7.

Representative Todd requested that members voting in the affirmative on a particular item (item 14) be listed as co‑prime sponsors; the clerk recorded the request as part of the consent calendar proceedings. The consent calendar included multiple resolutions and bills presented for final passage under the chamber’s consent procedures.

Separately, Leader Blair Lambert moved that the House suspend the rules for immediate consideration of Senate Joint Resolution 140, a measure providing for a recess in the proceedings of the 114th General Assembly. Following the suspension of the rules and a brief statement that Monday is Presidents Day, the House concurred in SJR 140; the speaker declared the motion concurred without objection.

The clerk later announced that committees meeting Tuesday must file amendments by the close of business Friday because of the holiday, and the House then recessed until 9 a.m. Thursday, Feb. 20, 2025.

These actions were procedural and scheduling items; no new substantive policy or appropriation tied to the consent calendar or SJR 140 was recorded on the House floor during this session.","The Tennessee House passed the consent calendar on third reading (Ayes 92, no nays) and concurred in SJR 140 to recess proceedings on Presidents Day.

Representative McCallman described the measure as a formal commendation for the October 7 coalition and identified Patricia Heaton and Elizabeth Doros as the coalition’s co‑founders. No amendments were filed to the resolution before the House voted.

The roll call on the resolution showed 71 members voting in favor and 19 opposed. The clerk announced the tally as “I, 71, 19 nays,” and the speaker declared the resolution concurred after the count met the constitutional majority.

The resolution is a ceremonial concurrence recognizing the coalition and its founders; the House did not attach implementing legislation, funding, or policy changes to the measure. The record of the House debate contains no further substantive floor amendments or committee referrals tied to SJR 6.
