Dave Sires

So six Republicans voted against this bill.

Senator Doug Campbell, Dave Sires, Charlie McClintock, as I mentioned, Jeff Taylor, Jason Schultz, and Dan Dawson, who is the chair of the Ways and Means Committee.

So that was kind of a surprise as well.

Or as you said, it's kind of a role reversal.

There's a, there's a lot to talk about with this special session as well.

Um, for example, I'm gonna read a, a-- My state senator, he posted something on social media, uh, as the special session was happening.

Zach Wahls wrote, "I'm in Sydney, Australia." Oh, okay.

[laughs] So they-- "On a long-planned trip to visit my wife's family, so I cannot be at the Capitol for today's last-minute special session.

I don't really know the full story there, but there are six Republicans who weren't, did not vote on this at all.

And it was even more split in the, uh, the Senate.

They had six Republican senators vote against this.

And, uh, to her credit, Sarah Trone Garriott did vote against this.
