The Senate is scheduled to convene at 10 a.m.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">\u201cOur constituents want more access to their Senate. This will give it to them,\u201d Boitano said about his resolution today in a news release. <\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">The resolution was approved Wednesday by the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nmlegis.gov\/lcs\/committeedisplay.aspx?CommitteeCode=SRC\" target=\"_blank\">Senate Rules Committee<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">Last month, the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nmlegis.gov\/lcs\/committeedisplay.aspx?CommitteeCode=SXCC\" target=\"_blank\">Senate Committee\u2019s Committee<\/a> decided to take <a href=\"http:\/\/haussamen.blogspot.com\/2009\/02\/senate-takes-step-toward-webcasting.html\">a step toward webcasting<\/a> by allowing cameras to be reinstalled in the Senate gallery with the intention of beginning webcasting later this session. Boitano\u2019s resolution would finalize that decision by setting in place the rules governing the webcasting.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">The resolution, while allowing live audio and video webcasting from the floor, would prohibit archiving. The webcast would include a disclaimer that the audio and video are for the benefit of the public and political use is prohibited.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">The decision last month to reinstall the cameras in the Senate was a shift for the bipartisan Committee\u2019s Committee. Though equipment was purchased and installed last year for the purpose of webcasting audio and video from the Senate floor, the committee later killed that plan, blaming the budget crunch, and had the cameras taken down.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">You can watch NMI\u2019s webcast and join the liveblog by clicking <a href=\"http:\/\/www.newmexicoindependent.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Senate could vote Friday on whether to give final authorization to webcasting and establish the ground rules.
