During the introduction of Senate Bill 134, an unnamed speaker contended that the committee assignment had not yet been announced before another step was taken, stating 'He read it, but I didn't say the committee yet,' while another unnamed speaker disputed this, saying 'I know what I said, man.' A further unnamed speaker raised the possibility of adding a co-sponsor. Speaker identities are unclear from the transcript, though 'Mr. Schoffler' is addressed as the bill reader by the presiding officer, and a person named 'James' is referenced but not formally identified. The dispute was resolved by re-reading the bill introduction.
