The bill has already been heard in a public hearing and meetings around a Senator's desk on the floor to vote bills out of committee are very common. The concern is the Monday drop dead date. If it's voted out of committee, it still must be set on the Intent Calendar and the Lt. Governor must recognize Senator Wentworth for him to move to suspend the rules to allow it to be taken out of order. There is very little time to do this, especially when you consider every Senate bill sponsor will be pushing any of their bills that aren't dead yet.

Is it dead?

Re: Campus-Carry Bills are dying!!!

Senator Fraser's office just told me that they've been getting a flood of calls asking Fraser to support the bill when he's a cosponsor. They're wondering if I got an e-mail list or something to call him.

ETA: Just finished calling the whole Senate Affairs Committee. Will resume calls tomorrow to Calendars.
