Prospects for getting out of committee? (TheGreenMiles - 1/31/2008 2:38:59 PM)
Josh, what are the prospects of this bill advancing to the full Senate?


I'm proud to say (Eric - 1/31/2008 2:56:34 PM)
my Senator, Chap Petersen, introduced the bill - so I'm pretty sure he's on board.

But along the lines of GreenMiles question, who are the other Senators that should be contacted?  Perhaps some of the RK readers will recognize their own Senator in the list and drop them a line.
