Well, we may or may not get another floor fight over HB218 in the Senate, but just to ensure that today won't be a quiet Friday in Austin, those anti-abortion bills that mysteriously appeared on the House calendar shortly after the announcement of Jim Keffer for Speaker were postponed till today. The Observer blog has the details. Stay tuned.
Posted by Charles Kuffner on May 18, 2007 to That's our LegeThey adjourned early Friday afternoon without taking up either abortion bill. The fun will have to wait until next week. Chair Swinford did spend a few minutes at the mike today to try to explain how the bills moved so slowly and then so quickly. Still remains "mysterious."

BTW, did I tell you about anti-abortion.info yet?
