Up in this thing. We& #39;ve got hand sanitizer, a nurse taking temps, masks and a reserved sense of joy about seeing other humans. #okleg

If you& #39;re following along, the House just read the governor& #39;s health emergency declaration, which is outlined here: https://nondoc.com/2020/04/02/stitt-declares-health-emergency-triggers-special-session-of-legislature/">https://nondoc.com/2020/04/0... #okleg #COVID19

The House is now considering HCR 1001X while the Senate is apparently having some video problems. The Senate will consider two measures this morning before the House sends its five measures over. Fullllllll details: https://nondoc.com/2020/04/05/what-the-oklahoma-legislature-plans-april-6/">https://nondoc.com/2020/04/0...

House Majority Floor Leader Jon Echols is presenting HCR 1001X, and House Minority Leader Emily Virgin has asked questions, including notification of rules/regulation suspension by the governor. Echols: "Inside this HCR, there is a requirement for notification." #okleg

Rep. Kevin West (left) asks Echols if the #okleg has any direct oversight. Echols says a committee exists and Speaker McCall has appointed Rep. Stan May & Rep. Chris Kannady. (Speaker PT Harold Wright is presiding while Rep. Tom Gann observes from the door.)

Rep. Tommy Hardin now asking a Q. (Btw, follow @ eCapitol_Shawn to track the Senate right now.) Hardin asks if declaring this as a catastrophic health emergency it will make people not take the next "catastrophic" designation seriously. Echols: "I do consider this catastrophic."

Hardin asks Echols what will happen with medications or human remains confiscated by OSDH (https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤔" title="Thinking face" aria-label="Emoji: Thinking face">), and I can& #39;t help but recall Echols& #39; bill this year to prevent a black market for body parts while authorizing a cadaver dog training program. #okleg
