Six-hour hearing followed by dramatic vote
Here's a link to my full story at spokesman.com on today's dramatic vote in favor of HB 111, the tribal policing bill, after a six-hour hearing that stretched long into the evening. More than two dozen people testified at the hearing that stretched from 1:30 in the afternoon until 7:30 at night, and most of them traveled from North Idaho to Boise to do it. The bill now moves to the full House with a recommendation that it pass.
