Times they are a changing!

Brothers and Sisters, it has only been 4 days since my last post so I am trying to make a effort to keep you better informed. This morning in the Old Supreme Chambers we were there for the Right to Work bill. SB 339, Senator Greg Hinkle (R) Thompson Falls. It was a good hearing in front of a packed room there were 6 proponents and 25 opponents. There were good questions of both sides. With the makeup of the committee it is likely to make it out of committee to the Senate Floor, where it will get another day in court, then hopefully be killed. We will keep you informed. There was suppose to be another anti-labor bill today, HB 421, Clean Government Act, Scott Mendenhall (R) Clancy, heard today but it was pulled yesterday and re-scheduled for Feb. 17th.

This Thursday we have SB 373, long title BAD BILL, in Rm 422 at 9 am. I was going to go into depth about it but Norby just informed me he needs to shut down the computer system for a short while, so I need to close for now.
