No surprise to me at all. Have called the labor commission twice in
the last two weeks--their comment(aide) is that there is no chance that the
Udall bill will get out of committee this session. Even though Kennedy is
said to be "signed on" as a sponsor, Kassenbnaum seems to be in control of
the committee.
Apparently there are more popular issues that they would rather deal with.
( Read that " more vote getters" ore "more Republican bashing" issues that
they can bring out!) There's little room in the political world for us
romantic idealists!
Best Regards,
Don
