The House has launched into a heated floor debate over Gov. Timothy M. Kaine’s transportation bill. Both sides are bantering over how the bill came to floor, not yet getting to the actual transportation funding debate.
House Minority Leader Ward L. Armstrong, D-Henry, questioned why the bill was “rammed” to the House floor through the Rules Committee this morning without notice.
Del. H. Morgan Griffith, R-Salem, noted it is the perogative of a committee to revisit legislation that it previously passed by. And, he noted, Democrats have had time to study Kaine’s bill because it was presented months ago.
Armstrong pointed out comments Griffith made in today’s Times-Dispatch about games being played with the transportation bills.
Del. Terry Kilgore, a Republican from Scott County, said it’s not about games.
“You got what you asked for is what I would say.“
