I have just heard that Friday – February 5 – at 930AM the Senator Dance Indigent Defense study bill (SJR51) will be heard in the Senate Rules Committee. If your senator is on this list, contact him or her and say YES to better indigent defense services!

The blogger from VR might be there to speak on the bill.
