About 30 minutes ago, State Rep. Mark Buesgens, R-Jordan, tried to make an amendment that would've added the proposal for a Canterbury Park racino to the omnibus agriculture and veterans policy bill (House File 3683).

It was ruled not germaine to the bill and thus not included.

"Perhaps I went about that last amendment the wrong way," Buesgens said on the House floor. "You have to build a bridge to get across the water."

Discussion continues. You can watch it online at http://www.house.leg.state.mn.us/htv/mnhouse.asx [1]. You can see a schedule of other online television events at the State Capitol by going to http://www.house.leg.state.mn.us/htv/schedule.asp [2].
