[QUOTE="Slappy, post: 439820, member: 7608"] Something to keep in mind when looking at any bill is that the bill sponsors may have no intention of voting for it themselves. One of the senators listed on this particular bill has stated at our NDGOP district meetings that he will carry any bill from a constituent that takes the time to write a bill that is important to them, regardless whether the senator supports it. That is noble in my opinion in a representative republic. In other words, if you have a really dumb idea that is important to you, and you take the time to have the bill drafted, you can have your dumb idea discussed in a legislative committee. Your representative has made sure your dumb voice is heard, and hopefully no part of your dumb idea makes it out of committee. Email, text or talk to your representatives. That's the only way it will ever work for you and the only way to know where they stand because the list of bill sponsors may not tell the whole story. Don't know if this is the case here but sure hope it is as this bill is a dumb idea. [/QUOTE]
