Sen. Vick says he hopes to bring back 2/3 amendment in future, if re-elected

Here’s a link to my full story at spokesman.com on the failure today of freshman North Idaho Sen. Steve Vick’s proposed constitutional amendment to require two-thirds votes not only for any tax increase, but also for any fee hike or the removal or reduction of any tax break. The measure, HJR 1, actually got a bare majority - 37-33 - but not the required two-thirds.

If he’s re-elected, Vick said, “I do plan on bringing it back in the future.”
