The Senate Ag Committee met at 10 o’clock this morning. You had written letters, called and some people came from all parts of Washington to testify at the hearing of HB 5811. The end result was that the committee decided to drop the ‘emergency clause’ in a bill extending the Cattle Advisory Board. We can all sigh a sigh of relief. Keep your eyes open though in other agricultural proposed legislation because it could rear its ugly head again. In 2005 they legislature used it 98 times in one session.
Thanks to all who took time to testify, call and write the Senate Ag Committee.
Great Job!
