House approves journal correction and honors departing page Madison Elj
Summary
The House approved a correction to its journal and publicly thanked Madison Elj, a page leaving to join the Marines next week, for service to the chamber.
The Speaker called for the correction of the journal and announced that it "stands approved," effectively closing that procedural item for the day.
The Speaker also recognized a departing page, saying, "Madison Elj, congratulations, and thank you for all your work for us this year in the house." The Speaker noted Madison will be leaving next week to join the Marines and asked members to join in honoring the page's service.
The brief proceedings combined routine housekeeping with a ceremonial recognition of a staff member's service. No formal votes beyond the journal approval and the recess motion later in the morning were recorded in relation to the recognition.
