Filibuster Continues in the House Due to Grocery Tax Bill

As soon as the special order calendar was introduced in the House this morning, Representative Buskey (D) expressed his disappointment in not seeing HB 116 on the calendar that would remove the grocery tax. This is the same bill that shut down the House on Tuesday after it failed to receive enough votes to move forward for a vote on the House floor.

It appears that the Black Caucus will continue to filibuster indefinitely in the House today.
