I would add that as the number of Capitol reporters has dwindled, the number of lobbying firms and lobbyists has skyrocketed. Just one utility bill brings out a gaggle of lobbyists to muscle it through.

That’s a really interesting stat. I always assumed they splitting and morphing rather than growing. I’m gonna pull the lobbyist registration database again and look at that.

I kept the Agenda article from two years ago and refer to it from time to time. It's always nice when we assistants get a shout-out. That doesn't happen very often!

Anyone who is preoccupied with "Culture Wars" gets a thumbs down. Do something productive...go get your cat fixed. You are wasting time.
