Any Ideas? Budget passes on a 4-1 vote; here is why

Submitted by Editor on June 5, 2011

Any Ideas?
This past Tuesday morning, the St. Mary’s County Board of County Commissioners approved the Fiscal Year 2012 Budget in three 4-1 votes.
I noted that there was not majority support for the plan that I presented three weeks ago to provide an obvious property tax cut while funding needed teaching positions but I did appreciate the second to my motion and single vote of support from Commissioner Dan Morris. Also, I noted the priorities that are established by this budget.
Special interest entitlements are given priority over teaching positions

Tennessee lawmakers urge each county to post Ten Commandments

Submitted by Editor on June 2, 2011

Nashville, TN - The Tennessee State House of Representatives passed a resolution urging each county to permit the Ten Commandments to be posted in their respective courthouses. The resolution passed unanimously 98-0, with two abstaining from the vote. The resolution reminds Tennessee lawmakers of America's rich history. Both citizens and their elected officials alike have respected the Ten Commandments, their profound influence on the formation of American legal thought, and their fundamental place in the history of law and government as a whole.
