Committee Opposes F&G Nominee

The Senate Resources Committee has voted 5-4 to send Fish & Game Commissioner Joan Hurlock’s confirmation to the full Senate with a recommendation that it not pass, after defeating another motion, on a reverse 4-5 vote, to send it with a recommendation that it pass. Sen. Dean Cameron, R-Rupert, passed on the first vote, and then, when it was split 4-4, cast the deciding vote against the do-pass motion/ Betsy Russell , Eye on Boise. More here.
