Thankfully, the mistakes made on Crossover Day are not irreparable. As the legislator says, the problems can be fixed in the other house. We will hope. One of my friends tells me that a couple of bad bills are not going to be passed by Crossover Day. He reminds me what I should never forget.
Nothing is ever really dead in the legislature.
Not until they close the session and go home. If they decide they want to pass those bad bills, they can figure out some way to do it. They will attach one bill to another or slip it in the budget bill or do something I haven't thought about. So, if you want to be a legislative insider, Crossover Day is an important day to remember. A lot of good and bad ideas die.
