Annie,
         Send this out for Wednesday hearing as well. There is a hearing on the climate change bill Wednesday in the Senate Lounge at 4:30. This would be the best day fo people to come. The House hearing the room is extremly small. The senate location is a big room, that can fit a good amount of people. Let the RISCC members know about the hearing on Wednesday.

Thanks for letting people know about the bill hearing

Chris

All:

Due to computer issues at the General Assebmly I was just informed that the Senate is canceling all of their legislative hearings for today.
