No Friday off for House after all

The House will meet on Friday, Speaker Lawerence Denney said this afternoon, "probably just a short time. We'll see what business we have. If there's something we need to do, we're at the point where we can't take a day off." Some lawmakers in both houses will be gone Friday, for everything from longstanding work commitments to family weddings and graduations. House Majority Caucus Chairman Ken Roberts, R-Donnelly, said he'll come in Friday morning, then head north to catch his daughter's track meet in Kamiah late that afternoon. House Minority Leader John Rusche, D-Lewiston, said he's headed to his goddaughter's wedding in Minneapolis, and he's in the wedding. "I left a pile of pair slips and I've got my cell phone," he said. "I'll be back Sunday night - I'm pretty sure we'll still be here."
