    Good morning. We are here for our 09:30am hearing for ECD. We're in Room 423 at the State Capitol, and we're here with a packed audience. Because morning hearings must adjourn prior to floor session, model test first may have the opportunity to testify. In that event, please know that your recent testimony will be concerned by the committee.

    For those on Zoom, please keep yourself muted and your video off while waiting to testify and after your testimony is complete. The Zoom chat function will allow you to chat with the technical staff only. Please use the chat only for technical issues. If you're disconnected, you may attempt to rejoin the meeting. If disconnected while presenting testimony, you may be allowed to continue the time permits.
