Amendment to remove charges for dates without roll call fails

Ms. Cole moved to strike any assessment for the specific dates where she said the journal contained no roll calls — Aug. 6, 7, 9, 10, 13, 14 and 16 — arguing that without a roll call there is no official record of who was present or absent. The clerk called the roll on the amendment and the motion did not carry; the chair announced the amendment failed (5-6).
