MR. SACHS: But today they can accomplish the

2

same thing by changing the formula, can't they?

3

MR. DONAHO: No, because the Attorney General

4

has ruled that this can amend the law, right?.

5

THE CHAIRMAN: If they are going to purposely

6

disobey their own laws, that is to say, the legislature,

7

and they are going to be that bold about it, it seems to

8

me that they can go ahead and disobey the Constitution, too

9

You know, they are already in the water and you can't get

10

any wetter.

11

DR. SENSENBAUGH : We have an election coming

12

up this fall and the whole makeup of the General Assembly

13

will change, even the Governor will change. Now, we know,

14

though, what our formula is going to be for the year coming

15

up, in the future. So, the present income in legislature

16

will not be able to change that for the first year. They

17

could change it for the second by changing the law, but

18

you could conceivably get enough people who would be of

19

the mind of Mr. Donaho who would be or say we're going to

20

only appropriate three-quarters of what the formula calls

21

for.
