Again, thanks.
"They" really do not want us involved or knowing what they are doing.

One must remember that THEY don't know what they are doing, any given hour.

It's really fun when you show up in committee for a voting session and the Trooper in the committee room tells you, you need to leave. And then you remind him of the open meeting laws and then call his boss directly on his cell phone.

I generally check the committee schedule several time a week, most times the bills being voted on are listed on the schedule. Sometimes, the committees will hold a "last minute" vote on a bill of "interest".

It was, the look on the Trooper's face was priceless when he heard his boss's voice on the speaker.
