POINT OF INQUIRY
Senator Spanel: “Would Senator Fraser yield to a question? I noticed on page 14, there is a reappropriation for 4.3 million for the Lewis and Clark confluence project so it’s my understanding that there is 4.3 million there and there’s an additional 1.5 million being newly appropriated. It seems like there’s still a good sum of money to be spent on this project that has not been spent. I don’t know whether the chair has any more information than I have on that but if she does I would ask her that question.”
Senator Fraser: “Yes, Madam President and Senator Spanel. There is a reappropriation in that amount in the budget.”
Senator Spanel: “So it is the addition of the two. So essentially what’s in this budget is 5. 8 million?”
Senator Fraser: “I believe that would be the correct addition.”

Can you please tell me how many members are present in the Senate today and what the vote count was? The vote count wasn’t reported on the division and I’d appreciate having those numbers please.”
REPLY BY THE PRESIDENT PRO TEMPORE
President Pro Tempore Franklin: “Thank you for your inquiry. The vote was twenty-two for; twenty-one against. The answer to the Senator’s question: We do not have anyone excused at this time. And also twenty-two is not. Senator, we need sixty percent of forty-nine and we do not have sixty percent so, therefore, the amendment fails.”
MOTION
On motion of Senator Hewitt, Senators McCaslin and Oke were excused.
MOTION
Senator Pflug moved that the following amendment by Senator Pflug be adopted.

PERSONAL PRIVILEGE
Senator Jacobsen: “Thank you Madame President. I just arranged to have handed out on your desk, from probably one of the most colorful individuals that was ever here, Julia Butler Hansen. In fact she had such a forceful personality. She was chair of the Transportation Committee and when they went into, the Democrats, went into the minority, they still allowed her to chair the Joint Legislative Committee. What this is is an announcement. They just donated her house to the state in Cathlamet. The other little bit of trivia on this, our Assistant Secretary of the Senate used to, Brad Hendrickson, used to mow her lawn. Then he lost his job. He, turns out that, he tells me, that a drunk driver plowed through her yard and so Julia insisted that his sentence be two years of community service and that meant mowing that yard. So Brad lost his job. He’d done a good job. Anyway, they’re having a fund raiser in Olympia, Washington and it will be on May 26 at noon. I urge everybody to think about coming because it goes for a good cause. Thank you.”
