    Found it


    This has been the progress thus far. Note the house vote was 82 ayes, 70 noes. Oh and it appears the state funding is something just a scosh over $10 million if I'm reading it right.

    Well looking at it, it looks like it took it a month to get through the house, so we can probably expect the same amount of time for it to get through the senate.

    I interned in the Missouri House. On the House side, it looks like it was pretty routine and it appears to have been a party line vote or very close to that (not sure but you can look that up if you are interested).

    It is now in the Senate and there will be a public hearing. This is all standard procedure up to this point.

    If it was a party line vote, the GOP also controls the Senate. They don't have a filibuster rule per se in the Senate, so I would feel pretty good about it passing.

    Oooooooooooooh....is our 60-90 days almost up? My, how time flies (yet it doesn't seem to move fast enough to suit our needs). It seems like only yesterday that we were impatiently counting down the days left on Tolbert's petition extension. :)

    If they break ground in May or June, that puts them on track to have the stadium finished in plenty of time for the start of the 2010 season.

    2 years in the CAB before moving into the new home? Really, I don't think we could have it any better, considering everything that's happened since Lamar put the team up for sale way back when.

    So it wasn't already in the House? I thought that's what the H stood for when you previously posted....

    No, I think that means that the Senate is reporting their version of the passed bill to the house so they can hammer out any necessary compromises between the two versions.

    Actually I think if the Senate had voted on it the results of the vote would be in there. Maybe not.

    So they both passed it but the Senate made some change that's getting the House's panties in a twist. Anyone in the know on the sticking point here?

    The budget line item is the same as it was when it was introduced, $10,086,123 so it must be some other budget item they are squabbling over.

    Repped for the updates and research.

    Looks like it's gone to committee in both chambers. That scares me a bit. You know which senators and reps to email! (If those in the know think it would help.)

    04/22/2008 Senate Conference Committee Appointed (S) SENATORS NODLER, MAYER, RUPP, BRAY AND GREEN
    04/22/2008 House Conference Committee Appointed (H) REPRESENTATIVES ICET, ROBB, STREAM, STORCH AND KOMO
