SMITH also points out that in addition to representatives of state agencies there are over 600 persons who have paid a $10 registration fee as lobbyists and all are asking for services that cost money. Senator Karl Swan feels that the first order of business in the Senate should be the creation of a procedure to cut the number of bills the Senate must consider this billion higher than in the previous year.
