House Motion On Uniform Time Bill Sparks Debate
Rep Charles Varney filed the house motion as the measure moves toward committee stages. If the Senate accepts the House amendment trimming a month from the last approved period, Gov Hughes would sign. If not, a joint conference committee will seek a compromise as Rep Mary Pat Gregerson criticizes the $10,000 in taxpayer time and argues rural residents should not be forced to adjust for urban schedules.
