                               TWENTY-SEVENTH DAY
                                    --------

                                          HALL OF THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
                        TOPEKA, KAN., Wednesday, February 19, 1997, 10:30 a.m.

  The House met pursuant to adjournment with Speaker pro tem Wagle in the
chair.
  The roll was called with 124 members present.
  Prayer by Chaplain Washington:
   Heavenly Father,
     You said in Proverbs 19:2, ``It is not good to have zeal without
   knowledge, nor to be hasty and miss the way.'' And again in 29:20 ``Do you
   see a man that speaks in haste? There is more hope for a fool than for
   him.''
     Slow us down, Lord, that we not be too hasty in our decisions. Help us
   to consider the hook before we grab the bait. Let pleasing You be our
   goal.
     Remind us that when the vote is cast it carries weight in the here and
   in the hereafter . . . in the temporal and in the eternal. You're looking,
   but You're also booking.
     In Ecclesiastes 12:14, You said that You would bring everything we do
   into judgement, so slow us down, Lord, that we might exercise wisdom that
   comes from you.
     Move us to consider the hope of the fool. He found out in Luke 12 that
   putting things in bigger barns or bigger closets or bigger garages does
   nothing for the soul. Slow us down, Lord. Remind us that life is more than
   the stuff we store.
     I come to You in the Name of Jesus, the Christ. Amen.

                              EXPLANATION OF VOTE
  Mr. Speaker: I vote no on HB 2181.
  I believe that in an attempt to understand the cause of cancer and to find
more efficient treatments, the state of Kansas needs to obtain as much
information as possible. However, I am concerned about the unintended
consequences of this bill on the victims stricken with this merciless disease
and the effect it has on their families. The bureaucracy, in its quest to
compile information, all too often forgets that it is dealing with real
people and not just statistics.--Robin Jennison
