Legislators recognized interns and pages, presented mementos, approved two additional days' pay for paid session employees, announced another Executive Appropriations Committee meeting at 7:15 PM, and recessed until 8:00 PM.
Lawmakers paused floor business to recognize the session’s interns and pages. Speaker 1 invited interns and pages forward, presented mementos and thanked them "for 45 days" of service; a junior-league cookbook was given as a gift for spouses.
