I will be nervous when I wake up tomorrow.

I have two bill hearings in the afternoon.

My legislation is not difficult to explain.

House Bill 93 would remove the limit on a stipend for a college student interning with the government or a non-profit.

House Bill 94 responds to a constituent’s problem. George Mitchell got poor advice about the deadline for applying for a disability payment when he retired.

They’re not difficult to explain. They’re not controversial.

Nonetheless, a bill hearing is like an oral argument in court or an at bat in baseball.

You’re only as good as your last appearance – in court or at the plate.

It’s your best chance to make the case for your bill.

You don’t want to swing and miss.
