Gearing up for the legislative session…
It isn’t usually a part of how I gear up for a legislative session, but this morning I underwent a root canal. On the good side: It should be all downhill from here.
Tomorrow morning, the governor and legislative leaders will speak to reporters as part of the annual AP Legislative Preview; tomorrow evening is the first episode of Idaho Public TV’s “Idaho Reports” program, and the legislative session starts on Monday, with Gov. Butch Otter’s State of the State message to a joint session of the House and Senate set for 1 p.m.
StateImpact Idaho has posted a guide to the upcoming session here; Senate President Pro-Tem Brent Hill, R-Rexburg, offers a look ahead here; and the Legislature’s website here is ground zero for tracking bills, agendas and more. Also, watch this space. I’ll tell you all about it.
