Neal,
(After that big brouhaha, I'm afraid to post this to the list)
Are you still tracking this? I understand that the House approved the
Senate's amendments on Monday, but I have another parliamentary procedure
question for you. Does the governor have to ratify this (as is in the
U.S. Government)?
Thanks,
Dhruva
