The invocation was offered by Representative Slaton as follows:
Dear Lord, we thank you so much for who you are and what you do for us.
And Lord, we come to you today here before Easter, and we remember that you
came to this earth born of a virgin. You died for our sins, and then you rose on the
third day. And because of that, we have salvation. Lord, I just pray for everyone
here, all of my colleagues, that you just bless them. I pray that each of us grows
to honor and love you more.
I pray for the families of my colleagues that are having to be away, for the
member that s’ here, and I just pray that you comfort their children and their
spouse. We all make sacrifices to be here and serve, and I m ’ thankful to have
everyone that s’ in this room with me. I pray that you be with us as we go through
session. But we thank you because we could do nothing without you and what
you v’ e done for us. In your name s’ sake I pray. Amen.820 87th LEGISLATURE — REGULAR SESSION

Amendment No. 1 - Point of Order
Representative Moody raised a point of order against further consideration
of Amendment No. 1 under Rule 11, Section 2, of the House Rules. The point of
order was sustained and the speaker submitted the following ruling:830 87th LEGISLATURE — REGULAR SESSION
RULING BY THE SPEAKER
on Amendment No. 1 to House Bill 567
Announced in the House on April 1, 2021
Representative Moody raises a point of order against further consideration of
the Slaton Amendment under Rule 11, Section 2, of the House Rules on the
grounds that the amendment is not germane.
The subject of the bill is ensuring that children are not unnecessarily
removed from their homes in suits affecting the parent-child relationship based on
a certain class of activities.
The bill amends three Family Code sections that provide the statutory
criteria in suits affecting the parent-child relationship for the removal of a child
based on acts of a parent. The Slaton Amendment would amend the bill s’
provisions in this regard to include acts by a parent that include withholding
consent to certain medical treatments for a child. Mr. Slaton acknowledges that
the amendment would allow a parent to withhold consent to, or approval of,
certain medical procedures that a child, in the exercise of personal judgment, may
desire.
Based on Mr. Slaton s’ arguments, the Chair finds that the subject of this
amendment is parental consent to medical treatment. The major purpose of an
amendment determines its germaneness. 47 H. Jour. 1123 (1941). Any
relationship to judicial proceedings over the parent-child relationship is merely
