Rep. Bob Nonini, R-Coeur d’Alene, said he was “reluctantly” asking the House to concur in Senate amendments to two education bills, HB 256 and HB 262. Nonini described the Senate changes to the bills as clauses that were “gutted out of the bill.” Then he said the freeze of the salary grid for one year still was in HB 262, accidentally calling it a “frid greeze.” “I don’t know if ‘frid greeze’ is a word,” Nonini said. “You can tell it’s Week 16 - it’s either hot in here, or I’ve just embarrassed myself.” Rep. Dick Harwood, R-St. Maries, asked Nonini, “If they’ve basically gutted these bills, is there still some good stuff in there or how come we’re concurring?” Nonini responded, “Yes, there still are some good things in there … I think are worthy of keeping.”

Nonini said. “You can tell it’s Week 16 - it’s either hot in here, or I’ve just embarrassed myself.”
