To gladden the heart of a human being, to feed the hungry, to help the afflicted, to lighten the sorrow of the sorrowful, and to remove the wrongs of the injured." We acknowledge the temptation to seek only our own good, hear only our own truth, and acknowledge only our own suffering. Help us, O Lord, along the road to justice and peace by holding the pain of our sisters and brothers as if it were our own. We pray that no children are lost to indifference and violence. We pray for the courage to transform this beautiful world into a place where people are not torn apart by senseless divisions. Help us together to find the strength to resist hatred by our caring. Help us remember that it is our hands that shape the earth. 2006-05-09 House Journal Page 3954 We pray that our words become actions that give life the shape of justice. Help all persons to be able to not merely see the similarities between all people but to feel less fear in the differences. Help anyone of us who sees wrong to undo it with their hand; and if we cannot, then let us speak against it with our tongue; and if we cannot do this either, then let us abhor it with our heart. An old Rabbi once asked his pupils how they could tell when the night had ended and the day had begun. "Could it be," asked one of the students, "when you can see an animal in the distance and tell whether it is a sheep or a dog?" "No," answered the Rabbi. Another asked, "Is it when you can look at a tree in the distance and tell whether it is a fig tree or a peach tree?" "No," answered the Rabbi. "Then what is it?" the pupils demanded. "It is when you can look on the face of any man or woman and see that it is your sister or brother. Because if you cannot see this, it is still night." From the cowardice that shrinks from new truth, from the laziness that is content with half-truths, from the arrogance that thinks it knows all truth, O God of Truth, deliver us. Amen. The Pledge of Allegiance was led by Representative Kott.

The following memorandum, dated May 9, 2006, was received from David Teal, Legislative Fiscal Analyst, Division of Legislative Finance: "Version N of the CCS HB 365(FIN)-the Conference Committee operating budget that will be considered on the floor of both House and Senate today-contains a technical error in section 3. There are two potential courses of corrective action: 1. Produce a corrected version of the bill, explain the problem on the floor, waive the 24-hour rule, and vote on the corrected version. 2. Adopt version N as printed and correct the error in engrossment. Because both House Chief Clerk and Senate Secretary will have the corrected version of the bill, the engrossment process will not be delayed. 2006-05-09 House Journal Page 3993 Option 2 is the more expedient and is the option I recommend. A fiscal note submitted by the Department of Corrections clearly makes a fund source change. The note was adopted by the Conference Committee and shows in section 2 of the bill (as a net zero), but the program that generates the fund roll-up in section 3 suppressed printing because the fiscal note nets zero. The programming error has been fixed. Section 3 makes no appropriations, so is often considered "informational only." Nevertheless, correction of this manifest error would eliminate concerns that the fiscal notes do not match the enacted version of the bill." Pursuant to the memorandum, the following was engrossed: CONFERENCE CS FOR HOUSE BILL NO. 365(Corrected) (same title) The Chief Clerk notified the Senate. **The presence of Representative Olson, who was excused (page 3988), was noted.
