Watch as Republican State Senate majority leader Scott Fitzgerald explains how corporations, not legislators, wrote the mining bill Republicans plan on ramming through this session: Obviously I’m not one bit surprised at the “foxes in the henhouse” approach employed by Sen. Fitzgerald and his Republican colleagues, because they’ve never struck me as being truly interested [...] You be the judge. By all accounts, Lori Compas exceeded expectations at Wednesday night’s debate with Senator Scott Fitzgerald.
