Powers record on Sunday pay and clerk payroll in 123rd Assembly
A critique of Mr Powers in the 123rd General Assembly cites page 191 and 204 of the journal detailing a resolution to pay Sunday wages to General Assembly employees and to enter committee clerks on the payroll from speaker announcements. The report notes revocation, later reconsideration, and a final bill carried on April 12, costing nearly 8000 dollars for inaction and balloting. It argues this proves his economy stance and challenges opponents to cite Wells voting records on the AR issue.
