POINT OF INQUIRY
Senator Franklin: "Senator Oke, occasionally, I fish. However we have friends that are avid fisher people--fishermen--if you will. On the lake, they tell me, especially on opening day, it is tremendously filled and even fishing with one line, it is just like hordes of people there. What is going to happen if they are allowed to have two lines on this crowded lake?"
Senator Oke: "Thank you for that question, Senator Franklin. I think you are referring to fresh water fishing when our lakes on opening day are just inundated with people that are out to catch the fish that, for the most part, we put into those lakes. This would only apply to salt water--food fish license only applies here. I think your concern is a good concern and that is why we just excluded this to only the food fish areas--salmon and salt water in particular."

Senator Hochstatter: "Senator Heavey, we are spending nine billion dollars and have watched the scores go down, so we are hoping that we can get the tests--we are hoping that we can buy the tests--the Superintendent of Public Instruction has suggested that we buy the third grade tests. We are hoping that we can get that out there, so that we can calculate where we are and begin to hold responsibility and accountability for that goal. I would like to say, 'Yes, Senator Heavey, we can guarantee that we will get there.' All I can say is this, that Kennewick did get there by holding them accountable to an established standard.

On page 4, line 19, after "organizations." strike all material down through "devices." on line 21 Debate ensued.
POINT OF INQUIRY
Senator Goings: "Senator Zarelli, just a question, in reading from line twenty-one of the bill, it says, 'Providing information on and distribution of contraception devices.' So, for example, if this bill were to pass and Planned Parenthood--for example--who wanted to actually deliver and also to talk about abstinence programs, because they have distributed information--a flyer--to schools throughout the state that talked about contraception devices, would this bill prohibit them from being part of the grant program--even if they wanted to deliver an abstinence education program?"
Senator Zarelli: "I cannot answer one hundred percent, but I would say that, 'Yes, it would exempt them,' and for a very good reason, I think, and that is you cannot on one hand push a particular ideal and then on the other say that. 'Well, but these are the exemptions from it.' The idea is to try something that we are currently not doing and that is specifically abstinence based. We can't tell kids not to do drugs and then hand them drugs on the other side. So, this kind of goes to that same argument. Thank you very much."
Further debate ensued.
POINT OF INQUIRY
Senator Roach: "Senator McAuliffe, I am actually quite fascinated with your choice of words in your last statement. You said that if these young people are making the wrong choices--the wrong decisions--and you have made a value statement in saying anything other than abstinence is wrong and it is a wrong choice and wrong decision. I was wondering if you would mind if we decided to codify the fact that you believe that it is wrong in terms of the decision or choice to have sex outside of marriage?"
Senator McAuliffe: "I think that is a difficult question to ask that you codify my language on that. I think you kinda took it out of context. What I said was, 'We want to be able to be assured that teenagers are taught abstinence education, that we in this body--and many of us believe that is the appropriate decision for them to make.' But, all children don't make that decision and so if they make the wrong decision--and we believe abstinence is a good thing for our young people--then they need to have education about other means of protecting themselves. Now, if you want to take that out of context and codify it, that would be your decision, but I don't think that is exactly the way I put it--the way you put it."

Further debate ensued.
