Amendments go on quickly

The House has made quick work of slapping on the compromise amendments to the governor’s highway bonding bill. Now, all that remains is the final debate and passage of the bill in the House – which still could be interesting.

With all due apologies, here’s a little rhyme about what we’ve been seeing:

When Governor Dirk got mad
There was lots of red ink in his pad.
Though lawmakers squawked
They started to talk
And just changed his road bill a tad.
