And another point: LB 454 was already on the agenda, and sure to get voted on. Why would she have to make a deal to get it put on the agenda for next session? We could at least have had it in select...

Exactly my point. What makes you think that it will be any different next year? We've been down this road before.

Jim-You are correct that "8 hours" is not spelled out specifically in the rules, however it is the general guideline that I believe the Legislature follows.
