Senator Hanson, please resume your seat. Senator McKim, I am not entertaining a point of order. I have asked all senators to listen in respectful silence.

I'm not entertaining a point of order; I said that before. I've asked you, and I'm directing you, to listen in respectful silence. You may not agree with what's being said, but you were heard in silence and I expect silence from the chamber.

Senator Whish-Wilson, please resume your seat.

Senator Whish-Wilson, I am directing you to resume your seat! This is a very difficult matter, and it is not assisted by cheering, by clapping or by comments across the chamber from any senator. I'm going to ask Senator Hanson to continue, and I expect Senator Hanson to be heard in silence.
