It was disappointing that the Joint Fiscal Committee did not discuss a Republican proposal for the upcomming heating season called "Harvesting to Heat" at its June 26th meeting. I belive it is critical to get all ideas into play, no matter the source, for early discussion. I applaud Senator Vince Illuzzi for probing the possibility of only holding school for 4 days a week to cut energy costs. While an initial overview of the concept indicates lots of hurdles, this is an example of getting discussion going early on an idea.
