. . . we’re still in session.  2006’s Special Session I met today for the 22nd time. It was, from all accounts, a pretty cut-and-dried affair, lasting two minutes. The Clerk offered the prayer. Morgan Griffith led the Pledge. Good news: the Speaker was in the chair, so his knee injury apparently has healed.
The House adjourned to reconvene in Session #23 on August 8.Â
 
Mark your calendars.
Perhaps the Finance Committee met for a little longer time?
Vivian —
Apparently so (I understand from news clips — I’m out of town and missed the festivities in Richmond). House Finance kicked the transportation can down the road one more time — they took the Senate transportation bills that had been languishing in their committee and would have expired August 1 — “tabled” until then — and tabled them indefinitely. Kind of put them in extended suspended animation.
Ah – I realize that you didn’t see my link (didn’t see it myself – it’s not in a different color or underlined). Click on Finance Committee in my post above to read one of the reports.
Problem fixed.
