More great tweets from Mary Beth Schneider of the IndyStar. I've arranged in chronological order:

Bauer says bill will be effective on Nov. 5 2012. Expires Nov. 7 unless voters of Indiana approve it on election day, Nov. 6.

Bauer says the law is the law, allows voters to approve or rescind it after that. Believes it passes constitutional muster.

Bauer says if Rs say it is constitutional; "we'll be waiting for that; if not willing to do it today we are here for any other bill."

Bosma says amendment will not be ruled out of order. Will not say whether is constitutional, saying that is not legislative job.

bosma: No need to wait, noneed to go get legal opinion... I promise you you can offer it and we will vote on it up or down.
