Fighting Bad Breath (Halitosis) and Stalemated Budget

Some lawmakers took Senate President Pro Tem Darrell Steinberg's toothbrush warning more seriously than others.

Assemblyman Bill Emmerson, R-Redlands, an orthodontist, handed out a free toothbrush and toothpaste to every member of the Assembly on Tuesday to ensure good hygiene - and good breath - during the standoff and any long-winded floor speeches.

"I hope this small tube is enough to get you through these trying budget negotiations," Emmerson wrote in a note accompanying the dental gifts, which he left on members' desks on the floor.

At least on the Assembly side, they won't be needing it as the speaker adjourned session until tomorrow, but could reconvene tonight if events warrant.
