CRN: Bob Gibson on the first week of the General Assembly session
The 2008 General Assembly session is underway, which means that Charlottesville Daily Progress political reporter Bob Gibson is commuting each day to Richmond. He phones in from the road to join Coy Barefoot on WINA’s Charlottesville–Right Now to talk about what has happened so far.
Topics include:
- Democrats unhappy with bill limit set to take effect for next year
- Governor Kaine attempts to set bi-partisan tone and cautions against anti-immigrant tone
- Delegate Brian Moran removed from key committees in advance of gubernatorial run
- The end of the abusive driving fees is near, but details need to be worked out
- An update on Governor Kaine’s efforts to ban smoking in Virginia restaurants
