“It would suit me fine and all of us fine if we could limit it to a week,” but “this is not simplistic,” Sen. Andrews said. “It would be very difficult to resolve these matters short of a full week.”
Unless the scope of discussion is “narrowly” defined, said Sen. Madison E. Marye (D-Shawville), “I can see us here longer and longer, and I don’t think the public is going to like it.”
He urged them to avoid a “brouhaha” and end the session in a week.
Senate Rules Committee member William A. Truben (R-Fauquier/ Clarke/Warren/Shenandoah) said he believes the General Assembly can wrap up the session in seven days or less because it will be considering “yes or no” issues.
“Either you’re for or against a particular thing,” he said in an interview outside the committee room. “Everybody knows what this is about.”
Sen. Truban believes the governor has “bit off more than he can chew” during a special session. Thus he believes legislators will address some of the issues during the September session and the remainder during the regular session beginning in January 1987.
The Senate Rules Committee also suggested:
• That the Senate and the House submit relevant legislation no later than 5 p.m. on Sept. 16, the second day of the session.
• That the Senate and the House complete consideration of legislation by Sept. 18.
