While I am waiting for the Family Medical Leave hearing to begin I am gonna cruise down State Street and catch a press conference to hear what the New Jersey Women for Obama have to say.

The polls suggest that Hillary Clinton has a solid lead in New Jersey for now, but the battle goes on for another week and I reckon it's gonna be a hard fought one until the end.

Anyway women from both houses and from the old and new guard will be on hand to offer up their support for Obama. And as an honorary Obama Girl I am definitely obliged to check that out!!

Fortunately the presser is right across the street from the statehouse (at the NJDSC offices) so I won't miss much of the Budget Committee stuff.

Randon musing: Senator Turner is rumored to vote NO on family leave in the Senate budget committee. But she'll be down the road at the Obama presser. They both kick off at the same time. Not sure if there's enough Shirley to go around, but maybe I can distract her until the vote is over?

Stay tuned. It all begins at 1pm.

Then on to the budget committee...

Seems like that should work at 1PM.

We need a NJ C-Span where all public business (at every level) is archived in full video for all to see.

Family Leave Will Go To The Floor! (0.00 / 0)

Sarlo "reserves his right" to change his mind on the floor. He's concerned about the "timing" given Corzine's upcoming budget announcements etc. Sounds weak in his "support"; he needs to hear from his working class constituents.
