From the Spokesman Review:
“(Idaho) Senators apparently are mutinying over bacon. This session, the strong smell of bacon frying no longer permeates the area around their chambers in the morning, as they’ve cut back in the Senate dining room – no more hot breakfasts. “We’re just trying to be frugal,” said Senate Majority Caucus Chairman Brad Little, R-Emmett. “We’ve got kind of some conservative guys in leadership.”
Complaints about the missing bacon have been so strong that Little quipped that Republican senators may hold a caucus on the topic. But he said the issue is unrelated to Senate Majority Leader Bart Davis’ strong hints to senators today that they all need to ante up their $75 lunchroom fees.”
