I mean, that's always their option, right?
I mean, it is.
They have that thing kind of in the chamber, don't they, Grody?
And I and they've certainly not been shy about throwing it around before.
So I suspect that that will happen.
What I also suspect will happen, of course, if any, if the Senate makes changes to this bill and, you know, changes are the only constant in Springfield seems to be changed.
It will have to go back to the House for consideration before it can go to the governor's desk.
But one of the things that Emmanuel Chris Welch, the House Speaker, talked about after the vote last night was he praised not only his lawmakers and Representative Buckner in making this thing happen, but also praising the governor's office
And the office of Senate President Don Harmon.
All of those people have been talking about this proposal for weeks.
We haven't seen any evidence of that because it's all been happening sort of through email and in smaller meetings and, you know, sort of trying to come up with something that they think everybody will be able to get behind.
So the Senate hasn't been out of this process at all.
But once stuff starts to see the light of day, obviously there's always an opportunity for changes.
What I suspect is also likely to happen, and there is some infrastructure reference in this bill.
And this, I mean, this thing is massive.
I mean, it became so much bigger between when it first passed back in February and now.
It just, it reminds me a little bit of, you know how when you call an Uber and the car shows up and it's got like chrome around every door edge and those stick-on portholes, you get it, Pep Boys.
It feels a little bit like that.
Like there's everything on this bill, right?
