__________________________________
\n
\n<\/span>The April 5th agenda is available here:\u00a0 http:\/\/scstatehouse.gov\/agendas\/121s1689.htm<\/a><\/p>\n

S.719<\/a><\/b> is item #13 on the agenda.<\/p>\n

This is because in the last ( March 22 ) meeting of the Senate Judiciary Committee, S719 was item #24\u00a0out of 24 items on the Agenda<\/a>, and the meeting stopped after finishing with item #19.\u00a0 So that left five items\u00a0<\/b>( items #19 thru #24 ) which had not been taken up at all in the March 22 meeting.<\/p>\n

Then there were also seven bills<\/b> in the March 22 Senate Judiciary Committee meeting which\u00a0were taken up, but then were at some point “carried over”.<\/p>\n

In addition, there is one new bill<\/b> ( S.1191<\/a> only introduced into the SC Senate on March 24th ) that is very short,\u00a0that has been placed at the very top of the list ( Agenda item #1 ) dealing with South Carolina Rules of Criminal Procedure
\n[It appears this is an example of how the Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman is able to give special priority to a bill on the agenda if he chooses to.]<\/p>\n

So S.719<\/b><\/a> is 13th on the list for April 5th.<\/p>\n

_________________________________
\n
\n<\/span>For those who decide to come to the Judiciary Committee meeting on April 5th (public interest and accountability are important), it is recommended you arrive in the committee meeting room at 2:00 pm (especially with the slightly smaller audience seating size of Room 308 as compared to the usual Room 105).<\/p>\n

Pink lapel tags have been prepared that can be pinned on to identify S719 SC Personhood Constitutional Amendment supporters, and it is requested that S719 supporters please sit as close to the front rows as possible.
