Third Read Calendar for 2/18/08

Third Reading of bills is the final reading of the bill before the entire body of the House where House members vote Y or N to support or oppose the bill. If the bill's passage is successful, the bill goes to the Senate where the process begins again.

House members must take their seats at their desks and are not allowed to move about during the Third Read process. If a legislator needs to communicate with another legislator during Third Read, emails can be sent back and forth. At times members may not have their computers on the floor so notes are passed back and forth via the pages.

I am going to try to post all Third Read calendars, as these calendars provide a complete list of bills that have sucessfully made their way through their committee assignments to be voted on by the entire body of the House of Representatives. If you don't have time to offer suggestions on tweaks to the bills as they make their way through the system, the ideal time to comment on a bill...to sway the opinion of your legislator is before they vote, before Third Read.

The following bills will be voted on Monday afternoon. You can look up the bill summary on the http://www.azleg.gov/ website. Just enter the bill number in the space provided at the upper right-hand side of the page.
