I just found that the legislator I've been working for isn't going to have the funds to pay me. His wife lost her job and they have to pull money that they loaned their campaign out of the campaign fund to cover expenses un til she can get things sorted. On the other hand the think tank I've been dealing with looks as if they might just retain the Academic I recommended to them. In other words. My initiative seems to have legs and will go primetime. The legislator gets his bill, the academic gets his honorarium, and the policy group gets a boost in profile sufficiently large that people might actually give shit what they have to say for once. For me who did all of the work to get this put together I get NADA. Fuck me.
