Gary Forby (D-Benton). <br /><br />Earlier today, the bill did not have enough support to go to a vote in the State Government Committee, according to Sen. Kyle McCarter (R-Lebanon).<br /><br />McCarter has opposed the legislation from the beginning. <br /><br />The bill, SB2093, could go to a full Senate vote today, McCarter said.<br />"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
