Heavenly
father
so
thankful
that
we
can
be
here
to
serve
in
this
place.
Lord
I'm
thankful
for
my
ability
to
be
here
as
a
representative
here,
lord,
I
would
pray
for
each
one
of
these
senators
that
are
here
today,
lord
I'm
so
thankful
for
their
investment
of
time
and
energy
and
finances
to
to
be
here
to
represent
the
people
of
this
state.
Lord,
I
would
pray,
as
you
taught
us
to
pray
that
they
would
lead
us
into
justice
that
they
would
lead
us
into
peace.
B
Just
take
a
note
folks,
our
good
pastor
sales
has
recently
been
featured
in
this
magazine,
cheyenne
living.
If
you
turn
to
the
center
part,
it
says
the
sales
family
and
faith.
It's
a
nice
article
about
him.
I
think
we'll
have
him
sign
this
before
he
leaves
today.
B
And
today,
in
wyoming
history
march,
7th
is
307
day.
1947
307
was
the
original
86
area
codes
established
by
the
bell
telephone
company
and
for
the
last
74
years
it's
remained
the
same
area
code
in
wyoming.
Since
then,
wyomingites
have
used
307
as
a
phrase
synonymous
with
the
state's
name
and
all
it
represents.

H
You,
mr
president,
I
move
adoption
of
joint
conference
committee
report
number
one
to
senate
file
one
and
ask
you
to
vote
I
before
I
walk
you
through
the
conference
committee
report.
Senator
hicks
is
going
to
walk
us
through
the
white
rod,
which
is
the
very
large
report.
You
have
here
and
kind
of
tell
you
net
net
net.
Where
we've
ended
up.
They
don't
have
a
lot.
I
I
I
It's
the
white
rod
was
what
we're
gonna
call
it
for
right
now,
so
go
through
your
packet
and
pull
that
out,
and
this
is
just
going
to
give
you
a
real,
quick,
high
level
overview
after
we,
what
the
conference
committee
report
does
and
where
we're
currently
at
on
the
budget.
So
what
I'd
like
you
to
do
is
flip
to
the
second
page
of
that.
I
So
if
you
go
to
the
second
page,
this
deals
strictly
with
the
general
fund,
and
so
when
you
go
down
to
the
bottom
right
hand
corner
and
you
track
that
across,
and
so,
if
you
start
right
down
there,
where
it
says
subtotal
in
2021,
the
budget
that
we
had
passed
was
3.163
billion
dollars.
I
I
Mr
chairman,
if
you
want
to
see
up
on
line
26,
that's
the
difference
between
that
came
out
of
the
house
and
come
out
of
the
senate.
The
house
had
actually
expended
2.51
million
dollars
the
senate
2.486
million
dollars.
In
the
actual
budget
bill,
there
was
24
million
dollars
more
expenditure
on
the
house
side,
the
senate
side.
The
conference
committee
report
comes
out
and
again,
if
you
look
at
that
bottom
right
hand,
number
our
general
fund
budget
again
that
senator
kinski
will
present
here
in
a
moment
is
2.786
million.
I
I
think,
by
the
time
we
get
out
of
here
right
now,
we're
going
to
be
sitting
at
about
103
million
dollars
left
less
than
the
lsra
under
the
current
budget
and
the
bills
that
we
currently
have
passed.
We
will
have
an
lsra
of
1
million
or
1
billion
457
million
dollars.
So
it's
a
reduction
under
the
current
budget.
We're
going
backwards
on
our
savings
account
folks.
So
just
keep
that
in
mind
as
we
go
forward
the
next
one.
What
I'd
like
to
do
is
take
you
down
to
the
strategic
investment
project
accounts.
I
So
when
you
look
down
at
that
bottom,
on
line
86,
we
came
in
the
session
with
171
million
dollars
in
the
sipa
account
we're
leaving
here
with
zero,
and
it's
unlikely
in
the
next
budget
cycle.
So
next
year,
when
we
come
back,
it
doesn't
look
like
there's
going
to
be
any
money
that
flows
through
our
normal
general
fund
all
the
way
down,
so
there
will
be
zero
in
the
sip
account
next
year
and
I'll
explain
where
all
that
money
went
because
it
was
much
more
than
171.
I
If
you
go
down
to
line
16
on
the
school
foundation
program-
and
you
go
all
the
way
across
to
column
x,
and
you
see
that
127
million
dollars-
that's
the
structural
deficit
that
we
currently
have
in
k-12.
So
that's
coming
out
of
the
lsra,
that's
one
of
the
reasons
we
continue
to
see
a
drawdown,
as
we
still
have
that
structural
deficit.
The
projected
deficit
for
this
budget
is
127
million.
I
I
If
you
go
down
to
the
bottom,
we're
going
to
spend
on
school
capital
construction
in
this
budget,
244
245
million
dollars
and
then,
if
you
go
up
to
lines
56,
57
and
59,
because
there
was
not
enough
money
to
fund
all
the
school
capital
construction
in
this
budget
we
transferred
14
million
dollars.
14.7
out
of
the
lsra
out
of
the
school
foundation.
Program
reserve
account
another
4
million
and
then
out
of
the
lsra
another
46
million
dollars
out
of
the
lsre
for
school
capital.
Construction.
I
I
J
Mr
president,
mr
president,
I
had
a
little
difficulty
understanding
all
the
school
capital
construction
and
how
that
fits
in.
But
it
looks
to
me,
like
that's
large
enough
to
essentially
act
account
for
the
decline
in
the
lsra
and
then
some
that,
if
we
that
that's
the
thing
that
is
really
eating
at
the
lsra,
I
recognize
the
school
operating
one
is
too,
but
that
we're
so
constrained
by
the
federal
maintenance
of
effort
requirements
under
the
stimulus
we
can't
do
anything
about.
Am
I
misreading
things.
I
Mr
chairman,
the
answer
to
the
question
is,
is
that's
part
of
the
answer
to
the
question
is
because
of
the
the
the
federal
maintenance
effort
we
didn't
have
a
lot
of
latitude
last
session.
To
significantly,
I
don't
think
significant.
We
were
looking
at
a
six
percent
reduction
in
the
school
foundation
program,
but
because
of
those
constraints
and
the
fact
that
we
didn't
get
any
concurrence
with
our
colleagues
down
at
the
other
end
of
the
building
we
still
have
baked
in
into
the
foundation
program,
that's
structural
deficit.
I
Some
of
that
may
have
been
associated
with
the
maintenance
effort,
whether
it
was
all
in
there.
I
don't
believe
so
anyway,
and
you'll
see
some
additional
stuff
coming
through
the
budget
that
deals
with
the
school
foundation
program
related
to
the
eca
that
my
colleague
will
talk
about,
but
most
of
the
drawdown
in
the
lsra.
I
As
far
as
the
school
foundation
program
just
deals
with
the
block
grant
the
other
stuff
on
the
that
came
out
of
the
lsra
is
not
a
maintenance
and
effort
for
school
capital
construction.
We
just
chose
to
go
ahead
and
fund
that
288
million
and
pull
out
of
the
sipa
and
the
lsra
to
do
that
at
this
point
in
time
I
just
I
got
to
reiterate:
there
is
zero
money
available
next
year
in
the
supplemental
for
any
any
any
construction
dollars
under
this
budget
zero.
I
J
J
If
the
house
had
been
agreeable,
but
they
weren't
but
relatively
small
potatoes
in
this
league,
but
the
question
I've
really
got
it
looks
to
me
like
if
we
had
could
solve
the
school
capital
construction
financing
problem
so
that
we
were
financing
that
out
of
an
ongoing
source,
we
could
have
eliminated
the
drawdown,
we're
seeing
in
the
lsra
and
I'm
wondering
am
I
understanding
the
numbers
right
there.
Am
I
missing
something
in
that.
H
H
The
conference
committee
report,
which
is
the
actual
document
that
we'll
be
voting
to
adopt
or
or
to
reject
so
turning
our
attention
to
the
spreadsheet
on
page
one.
These
are
the
amendments
that
were
identical
between
the
house
and
the
senate,
and
so
just
make
it
even
steven.
The
first
we
adopted
the
first
eight
of
the
senate
amendments
and
then
took
the
next
house
amendments
and
that's
what
d's
and
a's
d's
and
a's
and
d's
and
a's
you
see
there
under
jcc
action.
H
It
says
d,
we
delete
the
one
amendment
and
we
adopt
the
house
amendment
line
three.
We
delete
the
senate
amendment
and
then
next
line
we
adopt
the
house
amendment
all
the
way
down.
As
I
go
through
this
report,
I'm
not
going
to
bother
with
how
much
of
the
house
or
how
much
of
the
senate
we
adopted
or
further
amended,
but
I'll
simply
give
you
what
the
net
net
effect
of
each
is.
H
I'm
going
to
skip
the
this
page,
which
is
all
the
identicals,
because
we're
familiar
with
those
as
they
came
over
and
they
were
not
the
subject
of
any
great
debate
in
the
conference
committee
because,
under
our
rules,
anything
that's
identical
in
each
bill
is
not
subject
to
negotiation
or
discussion
in
conference
committee.
If
those
items
could
only
be
reopened
if
we
went
to
a
free
committee.
H
So
turning
to
page
two
item
33
this
is
this:
allows
the
governor
to
draw
upon
the
the
budget
for
the
fenerpa
federal
natural
resources
planning
to
assist
the
attorney
general
in
assisting
local
county
attorneys
in
litigation
relating
to
hunting
issues
between
the
u.s,
the
state
and
federally
recognized
indian
tribes.
There's
a
one
case.
That's
very
prominent
that
went
to
the
u.s
supreme
court.
That
is,
is
that
is
back
in
county
court
and
and
that
county
attorney
needs
help
line.
34
is
deletes
the
deletion
of
some
reports.
H
The
net
effect
of
line
34
is,
we
require
all
of
a
series
of
reports.
If
the
governor
chooses
to
veto
the
requirement
for
those
reports,
we
also
have
the
same
reports
required
in
hb,
146
and
senate
file.
112.
H
item
35
simply
makes
the
the
finer
money
for
the
black
hills.
National
forest
plan
revision
appropriation
effective
immediately.
This
is
hoping
to
jointly
develop
a
plan
for
the
black
hills
national
forest
with
the
state
that
joins
us
to
the
east
item
36.
H
This
is
the
445
thousand
dollars
for
the
publication
of
the
ballot
initiatives,
constitutional
amendments.
We
started
out
with
a
budget
for
one,
but
it
appears
there
may
be
a
fair
number
more
and
this
footnote
simply
says
any
of
those
funds
that
are
not
expended
by
december.
31
of
this
year
shall
revert
item
37
the
state
treasurer
you'll
recall.
Originally,
we
authorized
1.6
million
dollars
out
of
the
special
revenue,
which
is
the
the
investment
account.
H
We
deleted
the
1
million
because
it
turns
out
the
department
has
sufficient
dollars
for
this
this
consulting
contract.
This
is
a
major
national
accountancy
that
is
helping
us
put
together
the
back
office
and
make
sure
we're
keeping
keeping
proper
track
of
all
the
investments
we
did
leave
in
authority
for
681
thousand
dollars
for
three
additional
full-time
equivalents
in
the
back
office:
two
accountants
and
one
managing
accountant.
H
As
you
know,
as
the
investment
portfolio
grows
and
the
sophistication
of
our
portfolio
grows,
we
we've
had
outside
reports.
That
said,
we're
just
woefully
understaffed
in
that
area
for
what
we
need
to
to
properly
do
the
job.
So
we
know
we're
going
to
need
more
people
than
this
eventually,
but
this
is
this
is
what
they
can
onboard
at
this
time.
H
H
H
Looks
like
this:
it's
got.
It's
got
this
tremendous
rube
goldberg
like
machine
that
shows
how
our
money
flows.
So,
if
you've
grabbed
this
and
and
I'll,
I
have
to
give
you
a
disclaimer
in
advance.
I
I
think
we
spend
a
lot
of
time
on
much
ado
about
nothing
because
to
me
money
is
money.
Is
money
is
money
and
in
the
ideal
world
we'd
have
a
state
checking
account
in
the
state
savings
account,
but
not
everybody
sees
it
that
way.
H
H
H
Anything
over
that
459
in
fiscal
year,
23
60
would
go
to
the
budget
reserve
account,
which
would
probably
at
current
estimates,
yield
that
million
less
and
then
forty
percent
would
go
to
the
school
foundation
program
which
would
yield
that
program
eight
million
more
than
under
the
current
statute,
and
then
the
the
hurdle
rate
for
24
is
429
million
dollars.
H
So
it's
a
theoretical
and
the
longer
the
world
continues
to
decay
in
the
in
the
ukraine.
It
may
not
be
theoretical.
Unfortunately,
we
may
have
some
excess
there.
That
simply
goes
to
the
benefit
of
those
programs,
then,
on
the
other
side,
severance
taxes
again
on
the
yellow
side,
if
we
have
anything
over
328
million
dollars,.
H
One-Third
goes
to
the
budget
reserve
account
under
statute.
That
would
be
two-thirds,
which
means
about
33
million
less
into
the
budget
reserve
account,
and
then
one-third
would
go
into
the
school
foundation.
Program
reserve
account,
which
would
be
33
million
more
towards
that
see,
we're
just
shuffling
money,
one
pocket
to
the
other,
and
then
one-third
goes
into
the
general
fund,
which
has
no
net
change
on
the
general
fund.
H
H
It's
a
footnote
that
says
not
less
than
70
000
general
funds
shall
be
expended
for
rangeland
health
assessment
program
grants.
This
is
something
that
we
didn't
necessarily
feel
was
necessary,
but
we
compromised
with
our
colleagues
item
41.
H
This
is
it's
related
to
42
and
43.,
the
net
effect
of
which
is
we're
telling
deq,
take
150
000
out
of
your
own
budget
and
do
a
feasibility
study
on
obtaining
agreement
with
the
u.s
nuclear
regulatory
commission
relating
to
mining
and
processing
of
rare
earth,
minerals
and
nuclear
materials
related
to
that,
so
that
dispenses
with
41
42
and
43.
H
Let's
see
this
was
oh.
This
was
a
10
million
dollar
pathways
program
which
our
house
colleagues
agreed
to
back
away
from,
and
that
takes
care
of
44
and
45.
It
was.
It
was
a
10
million
dollar
new
pathway
program
with
a
with
a
match
and
they
agreed
to
recede
from
that
10
million
addition
to
the
budget
46.
H
This
is
the
men's
foot
note
8,
to
make
1
million
dollars
immediately
available
for
the
acoustic
study
to
improve
our
ability
to
hear
in
some
of
the
more
echoey
rooms.
H
H
H
H
So
you
can
imagine
some
poor
southern
states
where
they
get
a
match
of
60
percent
or
more.
We
get
50
percent.
Every
state
around
us
gets
more
than
50
from
the
federal
government.
Well,
somebody
discovered
that
if
you
take
the
23
counties
of
wyoming-
and
you
exclude
one
particular
county-
our
match
goes
from
50
to
60,
which
is
a
pretty
big
jump.
H
So
we're
asking
the
department
see
if
we
can
get
a
recalculation
and
treat
that
one
area
of
the
state
as
an
outlier
and
recalculate
our
percentage
and
then
the
next
part
of
the
note
directs
the
department
to
see
if
some
of
the
the
increased
match
that
we've
gotten
during
the
covid
crisis
can
be
extended
further
past
the
coveted
crisis
I
would
add
in
both
of
these
notes.
We
were
careful
to
draft
them
so
that
people
would
not
read
them
and
see
in
it
somehow
medicaid
expansion.
These
are
not
stocking
horses
for
medicaid
expansion.
H
The
note
clearly
says
just
for
current
medicaid
benefits
and
nothing
else.
The
match.
Okay.
Item
number
50.:
this
is
seven
million
dollars,
that's
available
from
the
feds.
If
we
put
up
957
thousand
dollars.
H
This
is
for
older
americans
act,
programs,
typically
nutrition
programs,
and
we
cut
the
appropriation
in
half
and
we
told
the
department
don't
spend
it
immediately,
keep
working
to
see
if
the
feds
are
going
to
waive
the
requirement
for
a
match
and
also
scratch
around
some
of
the
programs
that
the
senior
centers
are
running
now
and
the
department
is
running
now
could
actually
be
used
as
the
match
without
having
to
appropriate
new
money.
H
H
This
simply
clarifies
that
the
means
testing,
the
more
robust
means
testing
is
not
due
until
june
30
of
2023
and
further
directs
the
department
to
see
if
they
can
negotiate
with
the
federal
government
to
turn
this
from
100
wyoming
general
fund
into
a
cost
share
with
the
feds
items.
52
53
and
54
are
all
the
are
all
part
of
the
same
bundle
dealing
with
community
juvenile
justice
boards,
stabilization
and
expansion
of
juvenile
justice
boards
and
obtaining
data,
as
we
have
historically
from
them.
H
So
in
the
end,
it's
it's
going
to
be
enlightening.
To
get
this,
this
information
back
and
and
see
where
we
are
at
the
university.
With
that
okay
items
56
and
57,
you
will
recall
there
was
discussion
about
the
shop
wyoming
program,
not
not
allowing
any
wyoming
made
firearms
or
ammunition
on
that
site,
and
it
was
because
the
credit
card
processor
refuses
to
accept
those
products,
and
this
says
if,
if
you
can't
get
that
site
compliant,
then
set
up
a
new
site
that
is
specifically
focused
on
firearms
and
firearm.
Related
products
made
in
wyoming.
H
The
portion
that
penalizes
the
university
and
the
business
council
is
has
been
taken
out,
as
it
turns
out
that
it's
it's
for
reasons
that
it's
hard
to
explain
that
it's!
It's
federal
money
that
neither
one
of
them
necessarily
controls,
so
we
were
dinging
them
for
the
wrong
reasons
and
they
they
do
want
to
get
it
fixed,
so
they
they've
made
that
commitment
and
we're
requiring
that
fix
item
58.
H
This
is
one
of
our
house,
colleagues,
that
wants
to
see
if
carbon
dioxide
from
coal-fired
or
natural
gas
facilities
can
be
used
in
asphalt
or
concrete
on
public
works
projects.
The
appropriation
is
effective
immediately
and
then
59.
H
This
is
a
workload
study.
Originally
it
said
district
court
judges
and-
and
it
removes
the
reference
to
district
court
judges
since
we've
already
authorized
the
creation
of
additional
provisions
there
positions
there
item
60
the
net
net
effect
is
that
the
eca
for
k12
is
restored
at
9.3
million.
You
will
recall
that
we
deleted
that
and
we
receded
from
that,
so
that
9.3
million
remains
in
the
budget
item.
61
are
simply
technical
corrections.
H
H
Then
64
and
65
relate
to
the
these
chart
with
the
yellow
boxes.
We
receded
from
what
we
desired
in
order
to
concede
to
their
desire
to
direct
some
of
this
to
the
reserve
accounts
item
66,
the
net
net
effect
of
it
is
65
million
dollars
is
directed
into
permanent
saving.
75
million
dollars
is
directed
into
permanent
savings
in
the
permanent
mineral
trust
fund,
and
75
million
dollars
is
directed
into
permanent
savings
in
the
common
school
public
land
fund
67.
H
This
was
originally
a
transfer
from
the
penitentiary
account
to
the
solid
waste
account
of
6
million.
We
cut
that
in
half
to
3
million
item.
68
was
a
proposal
by
one
of
our
senate
colleagues
for
a
smart
contract,
research
and
development,
and
subsequently
that
was
reduced
and-
and
I
think
our
colleague
made
some
calls
and
found
out
that
that
that
dog
was
not
going
to
hunt.
Regretfully,
it
looked
like
it
had.
A
lot
of
promise.
H
66
is
an
additional
10
million
in
employee
compensation,
which
will
help
move
them
a
tad
bit
closer
to
market
and
then
70
energy
matching
funds
of
the
100
million
dollars.
We
allocated
to
the
governor,
10
million
is
for
public
infrastructure
for
commercial
energy
development
with
a
one-to-one
match.
H
Our
colleagues
receded
from
that
that
isn't
a
bill
we'll
be
considering
later
and
then
73
was
to
increase
the
reserve
account
to
225
percent,
which
would
have
the
net
effect
of
having
more
money
laying
around
that
rather
than
tipping
into
permanent
funds.
Our
colleagues
receded
from
that
one
and
then
finally,
74
was
called
the
13th
check.
This
was
a
proposal
to
give
all
retirees
an
additional
check
in
lieu
of
a
cost
of
living
increase.
H
We
were
all
concerned
after
everything
we
went
through
with
fire,
a
that.
Maybe
we
were
going
down
the
wrong
path
there
because
the
fun
looks
solvent,
but
at
one
point
fire
a
look
solvent
too.
So
we
opted
we've
we've
gotta,
we've
gotta
be
conservative.
On
that
one,
so
we
backed
away
from
that
but
did
concede
on
the
pay
raise
for
the
employees.
So
with
that,
I
will
stand
for
questions.
J
Mr,
mr
president,
my
question
is
going
to
relate
to
footnote
to
item
number
66,
and
let
me
preface
it
by
saying
that,
given
the
amount
of
money
we're
spending
this
time,
I'm
disappointed
we've
been
able
to
put
so
little
into
the
various
savings
accounts,
particularly
the
long-term
ones.
J
That,
and
am
I
am
I
right
thinking
that
the
net
effect
of
adopting
this
is-
was
going
to
be
75
million,
going
into
the
permanent
mineral
trust
fund
and
75
million
going
into
the
education
common
school
fund,
and
that
it's
not
going
to
go
there.
It's
going
to
go
to
the
reserve
accounts
where
it
will
be
spent
in
due
course
of
time
or
be
available
to
be
spent
due
course
of
time.
Is
that.
I
I
This
house
amendment
intercepted
that
and
took
that
and
put
it
into
the
reserve
accounts
they've
receded
so
now
that
75
million
is
going
in
to
the
permanent
mineral
trust
fund
and
75
million
to
the
common
school
permanent
land
fund.
I
hope
that
provides
clarification.
Mr
chairman,
thank
you.
Senator.
B
B
C
C
C
C
B
K
President,
I
know
we're
all
a
little
sleepy
this
morning,
but
maybe
we'll
dig
deep
and
find
some
energy
to
welcome
in
a
group
of
sixth
grade
students
from
cheyenne's
pioneer
park,
elementary
school
they're
joined
by
their
teachers,
miss
mckay
and
miss
horn.
So
let's
welcome
them
to
the
senate
pioneer.
E
Senator
driscoll
senate
will
stand
at
ease
the
sound
of
the
gavel
if
you're
willing
and
we
will
go
into
caucus
downstairs.
Republicans.
Okay,.
B
B
K
K
Colleagues
you'll
recall
that
we
were
looking
for
more
enforcement
tools
that
might
actually
get
people
to
stop
bringing
in
their
boats
and
things
that
might
be
carrying
aquatic
invasive
species,
and
so
the
bill
that
we
brought
before
you
said
that
if
this
person
has
been
on
notice
that
they
need
to
get
their
conveyance
expected
and
they
fail
to
do
that
that
we're
going
to
keep
them
out
of
our
state
parks.
Our
colleagues
on
down
the
hall
did
some
good
work
on
this
bill.
They
added
clarifying
language.
K
That
said,
it's
not
only
that
you
needed
to
get
your
conveyances
expected,
but
you
actually
put
it
in
wyoming
waters,
so
they
made
one
clarifying
amendment
and
then
they
recognized
that
limiting
your
access
to
state
parks
wouldn't
be
effective
in
places
like
alcova
or
flaming
gorge,
that
aren't
part
of
the
state
park
system.
So
they
added
language
that
they
deleted
that
section
and
said
that
they
may
be
prohibited
from
operating
any
watercraft
on
any
of
the
waterways
of
the
state
for
not
more
than
three
years.
K
So
a
good
catch
on
their
part
and
then
the
last
thing
they
did
was
modified
the
effective
dates
rather
than
having
kind
of
this
complicated
scheme.
They
just
changed
the
effective
date
to
january
1st
2023,
giving
everyone
a
chance
to
write
the
rules
and
figure
out
how
to
enforce
this.
So
overall
good
changes,
I'd
ask
for
your.
I
vote.
B
B
B
C
L
Parents
on
message
195
and
ask
you
to
vote
no.
This
is
the
same
amendment
that
we
had
in
the
senate,
minerals
committee
and
we
rejected
it.
We
did
not
even
move
the
amendment,
it's
an
amendment
from
the
utility
saying
that
you
can
only
buy
from
that
utility,
which
is
true,
but
we
didn't
think
it
need
to
be
in
the
bill
applying
to
electric
vehicle
charging
stations,
so
we
would
like
to
have
them
take
that
out
of
the
bill.
Thank
you
all
right.

discussion,

F
J
Mr
president,
I
move
adoption
of
of
this
amendment,
mr
president,
and
my
understanding
is
the
amendment
because
it
involves
money
is
going
to
require
a
roll
call
vote.
So,
if
it
doesn't,
I
would
ask
for
mr
president,
what
this
amendment
does.
J
Is
it
basically
is
the
standing
committee
amendment
that
was
a
13
to
12
vote
the
other
day
the
what
it
does
is.
It
says,
let's
increase
the
hathaway
scholarship
amount
by
20
percentage
points
we
have
eroded
due
to
inflation.
J
Mr
president,
inflation
in
the
college
costs
we
have
eroded
the
value
of
the
hathaway
scholarship
by
40
percentage
points,
since
it
started
the
bill
as
it
is
before
us
now
increases
the
amount
by
10.
J
We
need
to
appropriate
14
million
dollars
more
3.5
a
year
to
the
expenditure
account
here
so
that
we
have
enough
money
there.
So
we
can
run
for
four
years
without
having
to
have
any
capital
gains
income
from
the
endowment
account,
mr
president,
and
that
appears
to
us
to
be
a
safe
thing
to
do.
J
We
added
a
little
more
protection
by
preventing
a
tip
that
we
think
is
going
to
be
about
a
million
dollars
from
the
expenditure
account
into
the
the
corpus.
So
we
have
enough,
so
we
can
run
four
years
plus
without
any
capital
gains
and
and
that
we
think
that's
safe.
We,
we
still
have
a
major
task
ahead
of
us,
mr
president,
because
we
are
eroding
the
value
of
this
very
successful
program,
because
it
is
simply
not
keeping
up
with
academic
inflation
and
wyoming
has
been
pretty
good
about
keeping
that
down
more
successful.
J
Mr
president,
than
I
think
many
other
states
witnessed
the
fact
the
university
of
wyoming
is
still
about
the
cheapest
of
the
land
grant
colleges
you
can
go
to,
in
spite
of
the
tremendous
value
that
we're
offering
there.
So,
mr
president,
that's
the
amendment
it
does
have
that
14
million
appropriation
from
the
stabilization
account
the
reserve
account
because
that's
where
the
money
is-
and
I
think
it
is
an
excellent
way
to
deal
with
the
situation
and
take
advantage
of
the
good
times
we
have
right
now,
because
our
kids
are
really.
H
I
Hicks,
mr
chairman,
I
am
not
going
to
reiterate
the
entire
conversation
that
we
had
on
this
friday
and
why
the
senate
dem
deleted
this
and
defeated
this
in
the
current
bill.
But
just
a
couple
of
highlights
is
this:
just
looks
out
about
four
years
and
adds
money
in
there,
but
it
creates
a
structural
increase
in
the
hathaway
scholarship
and
we
have
seen
no
actuary
tables
to
this
when
we
get
out
30
years.
The
previous
stuff
that
we've
received
shows
that
we
may
be
at
50
50
at
the
current
scholarship
level.
I
I
And
if
you
look
at
the
bill,
it
only
goes
out
to
20
26
27
out
that
far
without
running
the
actuary
tables
on
this.
But
you
could
see
by
the
projections
that
were
presented
associated
with
this
you're
starting
to
move
in
a
direction
that
we
get
down
there
pretty
soon
ten
years
down
the
road
we're
not
actually
sound
on
the
hathaway,
which
means
this
body's
gonna
have
to
come
back
and
general
fund
money
into
the
corpus
of
the
trust,
and
so
the
10
is
good.
We
think
that'll
work.
I
20
folks
is
going
to
run
you
down
the
road
to
a
point
where
you
may
be
actually
to
the
point
where
they're
gonna
have
to
reduce
it
or
you're
going
to
have
to
start
putting
general
fund
money
in
there

Thank
you,
mr
president,
just
following
up
with
some
of
the
questions
we
didn't
have
answers
to

discussing
this
with
legislators
from
the
area
it
seems
like
in
terms
of
the
number
of
contested
cases,
there's
there's
been
about
three
in
the
past
five
years
in
laramie
county
I've
known
that
we
know
of
in
plat
niagara
county.
Those
are
the
three
control
areas
currently
that
are
currently
in
place,
while
the
contested
cases
are
located
here
in
memory

So

the
answer
to

of

questions.
