Representative Porter moved and asked unanimous consent that the roll          
call on the passage of the bill be considered the roll call on the             
effective date clause.  There being no objection, it was so ordered.           
                                                                               
Representative Kubina later gave notice of reconsideration of his vote         
on CSHB 2(FIN), and the reconsideration was taken up then.
