Lawmakers Move To Attach Emergency Clause On Alley Bill
Miami County voters rejected the measure while several representatives did not vote. A 10 to 0 committee vote supported Rep Matthias to attach an emergency clause to the Alley bill aimed at county court judges. The bill would take effect before the May primary filing period, but its provision to fix judge terms could clash with the current law. Other actions included welfare term extender debate, creation of a statewide highway advisory board, and a bill allocating 535,874 to cover department deficits from the governor’s vetoed budget.
