We the People
We are now through the third week. I will give a synopsis of some of the legislation that may be of interest. We voted today on HB1, which is known as the “feed bill”. This bill funds the legislative session plus the first couple weeks of the 2013 session. There was a 5% reduction in this bill. I might add that, regardless of what you may have seen in the media, the legislature did not vote for a pay raise. That would be in violation of Constitutional law. No legislature can vote a pay raise for that session and there has not been an increase in six years. The per diem we get to pay for housing and food was raised by about $1.50.

Rewards like sipping a cup of coffee on a long summer morning, vacations that never end, and not having to take calls.
