Safe House Pledge for the 87th Legislative Session Our commitment to serving our districts brings us together in close proximity to pass a state budget, pass legislation that will improve the lives of our constituents, and draw new Congressional and Legislative districts. Our work is important and requires us to be healthy during the Coronavirus pandemic. While our House Rules do not obligate us to follow these protocols set out in this Pledge, I understand I have an obligation to my fellow House Members. I am willing to sign my name to this Pledge out of respect for my fellow legislators. We know that COVID-19, and the more recent strain, is extremely contagious, and we can have COVID-19 without showing any symptoms. • Therefore, I pledge to take a COVID-19 test on any day I will be on the House Floor, in a Committee Hearing or otherwise in close proximity to other legislators. • If the test is positive, I commit to notifying the Speaker’s Office, giving the Speaker permission to share this information with all House Members. If the Speaker’s Office is not able to notify all House Members, I will ensure notice is sent out to all House Members. • I also commit to wearing a mask properly over my nose and mouth at all times when on the House Floor, in a Committee Hearing Room or when within six feet of other Members.
