Amended day care licensing bill goes to governor
Sen. Tim Corder, R-Mountain Home, urged the Senate to back the amended version of SB 1112a, the day care licensing bill, despite numerous problems he highlighted with the House amendments. "I'm still asking you to support it, with the fiscal impact, with all the errors, with all the things that are wrong with these amendments - it's still better than what we have right now," he told the Senate, "and we can fix it next year." The amended bill passed unanimously, 30-0, and now goes to the governor.
