I thought I had touched all of the bases on one of my bill drafts.
My constituents, who had come to me with a problem that the legislation would resolve, were satisfied. I’ve spoken with the lobbyists for both of the relevant industry associations and sent the proposal to them yesterday.
But I realized this morning that I had forgotten to do the same with the state agency that regulates my constituents’ business. So I promptly (and nervously) emailed the bill to the agency’s lobbyist.
His response: “The language looks solid from our perspective.”
Another detail dealt with, followed by a sigh of relief.
