HB 750 VOTED FAVORABLEY OUT OF COMMITTEE
Posted: Wed Mar 16, 2011 8:33 pm
I made it for the first two hours of the meeting. Before I left, the chairman, Rep. Sid Miller commented that after two hours of testimony, there were still more persons waiting to testify than at the beginning of the meeting.
I must commend the Chairman, Rep. Miller for his efficient, courteous and evenhanded conduct of the meeting.
It was so crowded that they had to open up TWO overflow rooms during the meeting.
There was LOTS of testimony but after 5 hours and 40 minutes HB 750 was voted favorably out of committee with a 5-3 vote.
