I guess Mary Moore would be happy if the BJCC were moved to Hoover? I get pandering, but this woman is off her rocker

Moore just put up an amendment. It would require the Mayor to consent to any contracts entered into by the BJCC Authority over $5000. Williams is arguing against it on the grounds that it was not advertised properly and would cause the law to be struck down in court. Moore is flat out arguing that not enough black people work at the BJCC.

Rogers I think is complaining that Reps had votes counted but claimed they didn't vote?
He's also putting up an amendment. Sounds like changing the makeup of the board of the BJCC. Mayor would appoint 5 members

How long can Moore and Rogers take turns speaking before they just get one with it and vote?

Mary Moore should be expelled from the House. In a civilized world you couldn't talk to other members of the house like that

She's even worse than Rogers. It's truly remarkable.

Maybe she's thinking they want to build this thing in England (that Birmingham's nickname is Brum)

What did Fayette County do to Mary Moore? I get the trashing on Shelby County but it seems like she just wants to lose

RE: ABc3340: BJCC stadium bill advances...as Bham business community shows support
motion on the previous question failed. debate continues on the schedule
it was moved by a rep from morgan county who wants to move on to other things. jack williams asked if everyone would vote no (meaning the whole jefferson delegation) so that they could continue debating

Cutting off debate (even though that's what needs to happen) would be a bad tactic. Rogers and Moore will go to the media and city council with the narrative "They cut us off from speaking our mind and representing you!"

Rogers back up. He has two amendments he's about to put up. First amendment would make the mayor a voting member of the BJCC Authority (he is already a member ex officio, jack williams isn't sure he's not already a voting member. ex officio doesn't mean non-voting)

agreed, cloture was not the right thing to do at that point in time
