Representative Gerhardt introduced guests on the House floor and said they were in the chamber to support House File 2758.
"They're both here to support House File 2758, and hopefully watch us pass it on the floor today," Gerhardt said, noting one guest named Scott has made 13 visits to the Capitol this year to advocate for pediatric cancer research and "drives four hours each way" to be here.
Gerhardt asked members to give the visitors a warm welcome, saying their repeated trips illustrate the depth of commitment among advocates. The remarks did not detail the bill's provisions or record any committee action; no debate or vote on House File 2758 occurred during the session recorded in the transcript.
The House continued with scheduled retiree speeches and later recessed for party caucuses.
