Another Thing that Might have Escaped your Attention

Another thing that might have escaped your attention is the fact that the Senate gave new document numbers to three amendments.  They are:
  1. Amendment #1 (Municipal Finance), reprinted as SB 2053
  2. Amendment #46 (Sales Tax Increase), reprinted as SB 2054
  3. Amendment $62 (Local Aid), reprinted as SB 2055.
How do I know this?  Somebody told me.  It's not because there is anything on the Senate website that would allow me or any other reader to know that.  And, it turns out that the text that is posted on the website for Amendment #46 and #62 is pretty much the same as in the printed amendment, but not so with Amendment #1, which has been completely rewritten in the amended form as SB 2053.

Among the little changes that they made is to change the Chapter 64L from a chapter relative to Taxation on Meals to one which is now concerned with "TAXATION OF DIRECT BROADCAST SATELLITE SERVICE."  That's a change worth noticing.
