Lawmakers not preparing to scatter

arguspoliblog:

So much for all the hype earlier this week about the blizzard.

Lawmakers, who sometimes are ready to flee the Capitol and head home when a storm threatens, are most likely staying in Pierre until tomorrow.

“There are no plans that I know of that would adjust our schedule,” says Rep. David Lust, the Republican majority leader.

Once again, we’re missing the worst (or best, for drought plagued areas) of a Great Plains blizzard that is ranging well to our south.
