Rep. Mike Schultz uncircles SB31, State Flag Amendments. @danmccay is standing in the back of the House Chamber. I've heard it could be close. Or maybe not. Schultz says lots of state flags flying in TX and CO because they like their state flag. #utpol #utleg #Utah #stateflags

Rep. Mike Schultz gives his closing arguments for the new flag. Says many Utah rodeos display the US flag, but not the Utah state flag, unlike rodeos in other states that proudly fly their state flags. #utpol #utleg #Utah #stateflags

Rep. Steve Eliason calls previous question. As parliamentarian he notes that a 2/3s vote on this issue means 2/3s of those present. @BradWilsonGOP says 2/3s voted to end debate, even though Rep. Lyman voted NO. #utpol #utleg #Utah #stateflags #DUP #BrighamYoung #Pioneers

Rep. Lund offers the body some flag etiquette. State flag is on the left of the speaker on the dais. I think I learned all this in Boy Scouts about 50 years ago. #utleg #utpol #Utah #Pioneers #DUP #Beehive #RandomUtahfacts

HB 21 passes the House 58-14-2. Almost party line. Rep. Quinn Kotter (R) votes against HB 21 with Democrats. #utleg #utpol #uted #trans #TransRightsAreHumanRights #EqualityUtah

UT House of Representatives debate on SB 21:
TRANSGENDER MEDICAL TREATMENTS AND PROCEDURES AMENDMENTS. House adopts 4th Sub - Rep. Katy Hall. Sen. Kennedy is standing behind her. #utleg #utpol #uted #trans #TransRightsAreHumanRights

[Joel Briscoe @JoelBriscoe]

Rep. Katy Hall: doctors and experts come to different conclusions about this issue. We should be cautious while we learn about the long term effects on our children. Can a child give appropriate consent? #uted #utleg #utpol #trans #TransRightsAreHumanRights #EqualityUtah

They will not produce the evidence that they claim because it does not exist. Voting machines do not change votes during the voting process or during tabulation. The Big Lie comes to Utah. #utpol #utleg
