[QUOTE="eyexer, post: 147231, member: 315"] If you think emails persuade votes your out of your mind. One of the recent sessions I talked many people into emailing our locals to vote yes on a simple bill that would require trucks to tarp loads carrying aggregate. Most states already have this. It really is a no brainer. The volume of windshields being put in out west is insane. And 90% of the trucks already have the tarps on the trailers and all it takes is a flip of a switch on most of those. A couple of the companies already had it as a requirement within the company. Well needless to say when it came time to vote on it they voted against it. I questioned why and was told that the only people that testified were from the transportation industry lol. It's a pretty sad day that one needs to travel to Bismarck to testify for something that is so obviously needed. It's assinine. And there were many people that contacted these reps to voice their opinion for the bill. If you can't get their attention for something that damn simple and obviously needed you might as well piss down your leg. It was a great litmus test. [/QUOTE]
