Senate marks passing of Allyn Dingel
The Senate has adjourned its session for this morning, after hearing the news of the death of longtime Idaho lobbyist Allyn Dingel. "It is with a heavy heart that I inform you that Allyn Dingel passed away," Sen. Diane Bilyeu, D-Pocatello, told the Senate. She said Dingel watched the recent passage of a concurrent resolution honoring him, "and delighted in it."
The Senate, like the House, had completed its formal business this morning but taken up no legislation. Among the announcements at adjournment: JFAC will not meet on Monday morning, Senate Finance Chairman Dean Cameron said. "We'll let you know when we are meeting," he told the Senate. The Senate then adjourned until 10 a.m. on Monday.
