That's still much too long, and much too often. But still, a good example for other states. I wouldn't mind long sessions if they repealed one obsolete or useless law for every new law enacted.

If only our House and Senate did that. I would be willing to pay them to be on vacation for 11 months a year so they wouldn't have enough time to screw things up so badly. It used to be that Washington was a ghost town in the summer months because of the heat. Then they installed AC. I think it was humorist Will Rogers who said they would get into all kinds of mischief by being able to legislate 12 months out of the year. “the Utah legislature is part time, and only meet for one month a year”

I'll take good old fashioned RI style mob politics (born and raised in the Ocean State) over our nutsos any day. Of course, they may be raising the speed limit on I-15 to 80mph on some stretches, so maybe they're not all bad. No wait, they are.
