Excused for the Day

The journal records 12 members as having leave of the House for the day, that is, permission to be away. A member on leave may still have voted on part of the day, and the roll call record does not always agree with the journal about who was excused.

Rep. Nancy Carlson (D - Ches 6) Rep. Robert Foose (D - Merr 1) Rep. Marilinda Garcia (R - Rock 8) Rep. Karen Hutchinson (R - Rock 3) Rep. Marcia Moody (D - Rock 17) Rep. James O'Neil (D - Hills 19) Rep. David Palfrey (R - Merr 2) Rep. Brian Poznanski (D - Hills 26) Rep. Elisabeth Sanders (R - Rock 12) Rep. Joan Schulze (D - Hills 26) Rep. Kimberly Shaw (D - Hills 26) Rep. Peter Silva
