2011 Legislative Session

Day 56 - Well we finally got a day away from the Capital. We finished up last night on the House Floor around 11:15 PM to complete two grulling days ... Friday was a little over 16 hours (8 AM to 12:15 AM) and Saturday was a little over 13 hours (10:00 AM to 11:15 PM). The worst party of yesterday were the "rolling" meals. "Rolling" means the House continues to debate legislation while members go to the cafeteria to eat. Members cannot leave the Capital Campus during these times, which make for very long days. I was able to get one bill (HB 1875) through the House late Friday night, now it's off to the Senate for consideration.

Today (Sunday) will definitely be a day of rest. I've got a few small things to take care of, but I don't plan on doing a whole lot.
