Short Description of Activity
Discussion of difference between “trustee” and “steward”, debrief about Rules Committee, preparation for Judiciary Committee, getting more organizations to sign on in support, creating a steering committee google group to make internal communications more efficient; reports on outreach to legislators; discussion re getting scheduled in Judiciary Committee.
Reflection/Evaluation
We discussed all of these agenda items and more at our four meetings. However, we were only successful in seeing SJR 3 pass from Rules Committee to Judiciary, where, sadly, it stayed hidden under the Chairman’s files and was never brought to the table for a hearing. Nor did he have the courtesy to respond to emails or phone call requests, or the asks from other sponsors and supporters.
