I did not take notes, and I believe there weren't many others who did as well. I doubt they'll be as detailed as Tuesday's notes, if someone does indeed post them.

I don't believe there are official transcripts of these sessions. We had a hard time getting the transcripts/recordings from the actual session judiciary hearings back in the spring. I saw a guy recording them, but I have not been able to locate them afterward. I'll research this and post back to memestreams if I find anything.

Another reason why notes of Wednesday's hearings aren't as important is because the proponents basically left after our presentation. Both sponsors of the bills, Sen Cooper (who seems to be in favor of the bills) and all the lobbyists for the proponents weren't even in the room for these presentations.
