This time, they just walked out rather than voting on the Save Women's Sports Act
Earlier this week, in the House Children & Youth Committee, Democrats avoided a vote on SB 9 in the craziest way yet. Minority Chair, Rep. Kate Klunk (R - 169) made a motion to bring up the Save Women's Sports Act for a vote during "other business." Rep. Liz Hanbidge (D - 61), committee chair at the time, promptly denied the motion. Rep. Klunk appealed, but instead of allowing discussion on the motion, Rep. Hanbidge proceeded to steamroll her way through a vote, ignoring the objections of Republicans in the committee. After the vote, she and the rest of the Democrats proceeded to get up and walk out as Republican members attempted to make their voices heard.
Protocol was ignored as they shut down the Save Women's Sports Act.
What are they so afraid of?
