Otter: Add The Words Will Get Hearing

From the guv’s debate via Eye on Boise: Otter said, “I met twice with the group last year that was advocating for adding the words. And the two times I met with them I agreed that the Legislature should hold a hearing. And I believe that the Legislature was that close to doing just that, until the antics started up, until we found people hiding in the closet, until they started stopping people from doing their legally elected jobs. … People that represented people right here in this room could not get into the chambers to do their jobs. Civil disobedience, when it stops duly elected legislators from doing their job, then I can understand the angst that it caused in the Legislature and finally the resistance.” He added, “I would say that probably next year, most likely next year you will see a hearing for adding the words.” Full report here.

Question: Do you think the 2015 Idaho Legislature will agree to conduct a hearing for the “Add the Words” proposal? Do you think such a hearing would lead to a vote to Add the Words?
