Here's the roll call on Sen. Rice's motion.

And we're gaveled into Joint Budget Committee for the morning. Hearing that Sen. Rice has something in store, we hear.

Our thoughts on this morning: onarwatch.org/the-legislatur…

Good morning #arpx! We're back for another couple days of fiscal session. Today in Joint Budget Committee are various amendments to funding bills; later in the personnel subcommittee we'll hear Sen. Terry Rice's proposed amendment to defund Joe Profiri's position.

These "no" votes are the JBC Personnel #arleg members who think it's fine to have a nonsense position in the gov's office for Joe Profiri with a price tag of >$200,000/yr, courtesy of AR taxpayers #arpx

Cavanaugh: no Jeremiah Moore: no Richmond: yes Holcumb: no McCullough: yes Clowney: yes Jean: didn't hear Evans: no

Petty: no Blake Johnson: no Bryant: no Caldwell: aye Hill: aye Leding: aye Dismang: no Hester: no
