I had a lot I had to get done to get them in. I spend a workday on Friday getting that stuff done. I put the finishing touches on them during my planning period today. I got them in, on time. There is no excuse for them having months and months to get this done and just plain not doing so. It isn't like they have been passing hundreds of bills. This should be done by 31 Oct.
