Senate Committee To Vote
See also Reef Bill Dies.
UPDATE, 2/21/08: Tom Fote sent an e-mail today saying the Senate committee did pass the reef bill. The next step is for the full Senate to vote on the bill and then for the state Assembly to vote on it, and then the governor will either sign off on the bill or reject it.
