Chair Gutiérrez gives testimony instructions and administers oath
Gutiérrez reminds witnesses to fill out witness slips, notes no legislation is being voted on, limits testimony to two minutes, and asks colleagues to keep questions to five minutes. She then turns it over to counsel for the oath.
I would like to remind everyone who wishes to testify in person today that you must fill out a witness slip, which you can find on the desk at the sergeant at arms near the entrance of the room.
Please fill out the slip even if you have already registered in advance that you will be testifying in person today.
If you wish to testify on any of the legislation, please indicate on the witness slip whether you are here to testify in favor of or in opposition to the ledge.
I also want to point out that we will not be voting on any legislation today.
To allow as many people as possible to testify, testimony will be limited to two minutes per person, whether you are testifying in person or on Zoom.
I'm also going to ask my colleagues to keep their questions and comments to five minutes.
Please note that witnesses who are here in person will testify before those who are signed into the Zoom webinar.
I will now turn it over to subcommittee counsel to administer the oath.
