Because HB6 is Cain's bill, González was presiding as vice chair. But when she tried to recognize Collier, Cain attempted to both recess for lunch and move to witnesses w/o letting Collier ask questions. The committee ended up recessing abruptly.

House Bill 6 is one of the main elections bill in the chamber. It would, among several other things, prohibit counties from sending out applications for mail-in ballots to voters who do not request them or from even encouraging voters to fill them out #txlege

Did anyone else hear someone whisper "Draw it out" to Rep. Schofield after he was recognized?

Not even pretending anymore. The overt racism demonstrated by the TX GQP and in particular. #Racists #txlege #HB6 #VoterSuppression

Cain said it's been the "committee's practice" not to allow it, but it is not unheard of and there's no rule I'm aware of that would prevent him from recognizing her.
