It’s doable.” He said he’s visited with his House counterpart, House Majority Leader Mike Moyle, R-Star, and “he joins in sharing that optimism.” The House has a considerably longer calendar to take up today, including lots of budget bills. “I’d like to try to do it today,” Moyle told Eye on Boise. “We’ll see what happens. If not, we can finish up tomorrow. We’re on track.” Davis said the Senate will need to handle 26 or possibly 27 different pieces of legislation today to finish up/Betsy Russell, Eye on Boise.
