Some looooong hearings…
The tribal policing bill hearing, which just ended a few minutes ago, lasted for a whopping six hours, running from 1:30 in the afternoon until 7:30 at night. Meanwhile, the school reform hearing today went into the evening as well, running from 3 p.m. until a bit after 7 p.m., amid some flaring tempers and a whole lot of people testifying. The education hearing continues tomorrow; the tribal policing committee debate is done, and the next stop for that bill is the full House.
