Democrats finally get their bills approved

Three Democratic bills that were stripped from last Friday's agenda were brought up out of committee and voted out on Tuesday afternoon by the full House. The move is intended to finally put an end to the tension that was created during last week's standoff between Democrats and Republicans.

GOP lawmakers stripped the bills from the agenda on Friday after Democrats insisted on reading each bill after Republicans blocked debate on an amendment to an education bill.
