Bills on the Senate Floor: Day 39

Speaking of Agnes Scott, there’s a tradition (that’s actually a requirement – or at least it used to be a requirement, but I’m #olde and times might have changed) that when a student is accompanied by a male in a dormitory hallway, she must announce his presence by saying, “Man on the hall!” Sometimes this call would be quiet and perfunctory; sometimes it would be shouted with relish: “MAN on the HALL!”

Anyway, that’s how I hear “Bills on the floor.” So with that, here are today’s BILLS on the FLOOR! There are a lot of them, so you can read them after the jump:
