Citizens for Life Lobby Day
B1 10AM
Catch of the Day, Video News covered this along
with 3 reporters from the Metro approximately 40 people came in and were given material to find their Senators and Representatives
and defend life. The Metro will probably have a story tomorrow..lets see what they write! After they were invited to
lunch at the office but I do not think many went as it is difficult to find when you do not know Boston. They also lobbied
on the curriculum frameworks content on sexuality. This group defends parental notification and parental rights.

COMMITTEE ON BONDING AND
CAPITAL EXPENDITURES
SWAPTION PUBLIC HEARING
11AM B1
Catch of the Day is waiting permission on this
one. This Committee is very good, but one never knows when the storm will hit to be denied.. as there is a change of
guard let's see what happens here..will keep you posted.. Permission granted and the Hearing was 2hrs 10 minutes
long..
HOUSE MAYBE AND SENATE IN FORMAL SESSION house was in session and a Press Event followed from the Republicans..
Not happy with the budget .. taxes not good. taped by House Broadcast.
I got some audio on it and was thrilled House
Broadcast video taped this event. One thing I believe that all the Press events from Parties should be captured along
with the Sessions. This past month I was taping the GOP and no one came from the State Broadcast. I felt that
was an extremely rude gesture and that the taping this time was a great thing. Glad they caught on. Hope you the public
reading this will call and let them know in the Speakers Office that you want this taped you know once and a while the GOP
can be right and who will know if we do not hear their side.. If you like politics you want to know the different angles..
and not have a one party posture.
Later I went upstairs to 2nd floor and caught some footage of the Rally inNurses
Hall on Health Care Home Care Nurses Aide moneys which was great. Later they formed a march and politely went from door
to door with a card to remind the Statehouse to support this cause.
