HB681/SB321 Parking Lots Bill is on the Floor

[A-R]

I feel so ashamed that these are collectively our representatives and they have no CLUE what the bill is about and what it provides, while I am sitting at home and completely understand the bill myself. This is close to embarrassing.

not sure how much more of this I can watch

to be fair, over 2000 bills were proposed this year, so I can see how its hard to be up on all of them. But, if the aides haven't done the research to fill a Rep in on it, maybe he should get some better aides instead of asking silly questions on the floor. It's called research, and its kind of what you're supposed to have all those staffers for....

EXACTLY! I don't expect them to know everything. I DO expect them to do their homework!

I also expect them to be able to understand plain English when it's presented to them.

I got a root canal this morning, I don't want a colonoscopy tonight--That was great!

Some of the legislators remind me of classmates who should be in the remedial class instead.

yeah, my connection dropped and now I can't get it back up again. was getting interesting debating amendment taking away ALL negligence from companies and Eiland was bringing up how contractors are getting screwed from both sides - can't bring gun (not an employee), but also can't sue company if someone hurts them with gun. very good point. seems like the senators who did their homework are finally showing up

[joelamosobadiah]

For those of you that can't connect, the motion to table amendment 4 had a final vote of 70-70. They're verifying the vote now.

[jmra]

This is painful.

[joelamosobadiah]

Yes, very painful. I'm not upset I'm going to miss reading these names, but I must go run errands. Keep me updated guys!

motion tabled 70-67

amendment 5 withdrawn

Amendment 6 would limit parking lot bill to CHL holders

[canvasbck]

Pardon my ignorance, but when they substituted SB321, was it the version that passed the senate or the one that the house B&I committee tacked on the chemical plant exemption?

[jmra]

This guy can't answer any questions about CHL laws and MPA laws

The debate on amendment 6 unreal!
