HB167, which was the 2006 version of HB847, got nixed on March 16, 2006. And, as of today, May 2, 2008, which is six weeks later along a similar legislative schedule, the speed limits bill is still very much alive & kicking. Apparently, HB847 has legs otherwise it would have already been nixed.
Anyone know what is going on with HB847. Like, is it resting inside a plain manilla folder in the "in" shelf of the Senate President's 220 year old state house desk, or somewhere. Like, if you could pinpoint exactly where this bill is physically and intellectually located.....where's it at? How's it work? Do the 24 state senators all come back from a lengthy lunch where the senator who buys the final ice-breaker gets to decide what bill gets acted upon, or what?
I got to wonder...wonder...wonder where-o-where it is...just a simple answer please...this simple inquiring mind needs to know?
