What could tear away a lobbyist from the opening festivities for the General Assembly?

The answer it seems is Wake County student reassignment. At least three registered lobbyists, all Lacy Elementary parents, were at Wednesday's work session to see if the moves to Stough Elementary would be dropped.

Dana Cope, executive director of the State Employees Association of N.C., was working the room to promote his new group, the Children's Political Action Committee.

UPDATE

Link for Children's PAC flier now at end of the post.
