HB0959 - Confidentiality Passes House

[johnharris]

HB0959 - (Bass) passed the House on a vote of 83 to 12. This sends the bill to the Senate with a prediction of passage.

Here are the votes:

HB0959 by Bass - FLOOR VOTE: AS AMENDED PASSAGE ON THIRD CONSIDERATION 5/4/2009
Passed

Ayes...............................................83
Noes...............................................12

Representatives voting aye were: Barker, Bass, Bell, Bone, Borchert, Brooks H, Brooks K, Campfield, Carr, Casada, Cobb C, Cobb J, Cobb T, Coleman, Coley, Cooper, Curtiss, Dean, DeBerry J, Dennis, Dunn, Eldridge, Evans, Faulkner, Ferguson, Fincher, Fitzhugh, Floyd, Ford, Fraley, Hackworth, Hardaway, Harmon, Harrison, Harwell, Hawk, Haynes, Hensley, Hill, Johnson C, Johnson P, Jones U, Kelsey, Kernell, Litz, Lollar, Lundberg, Lynn, Maddox, Maggart, Matheny, Matlock, McCord, McCormick, McDaniel, McDonald, McManus, Montgomery, Moore, Mumpower, Niceley, Odom, Pitts, Pruitt, Ramsey, Rich, Roach, Rowland, Sargent, Shepard, Shipley, Swafford, Tidwell, Tindell, Todd, Towns, Turner M, Watson, Weaver, Windle, Winningham, Yokley, Mr. Speaker Williams -- 83.

Representatives voting no were: Armstrong, Brown, Camper, DeBerry L, Favors, Miller, Naifeh, Richardson, Shaw, Sontany, Stewart, Turner L -- 12.

One could easily argue that those 12 voting to continue the system which allows the abuses of the news media, such as the Commercial Appeal, should be considered on the short list of last term representatives. Sadly, none of them surprise me - at all.

Not much debate - none at all....

I can promise with respect to Johny Shaw, everything that can be, will be done to see to it that is enjoying his last term as a Tennessee State Representative.

With Senate passage predicted, any ideas how the governor might react ? He seems to have kept quiet about various gun-related bills.
