Snow Day For General Assembly
Just in to the H-L:
Leaders of both chambers of the General Assembly decided to call off meeting Friday because of reports of snow that could hit Kentucky overnight and early in the morning.
"That way members can get on the road tonight," said House Speaker Greg Stumbo, D-Prestonsburg. "We decided it was better not to have session."
Stumbo said he spoke with Senate President David Williams, R-Burkesville, who had come to the same conclusion independently.
The legislative day, which was supposed to be the 18th day of the 60-day session, can be saved for later -- either to handle bills on a Saturday or during a two-week break for the governor to consider vetoing legislation in early April. The session must end by midnight April 15.
So consider tomorrow a "Not-Spending-Your-Money" holiday!
