Thankfully, the OGA is still controlled by Republicans. Any proposal foisted upon those Republicans by the minority Democrats, will rarely, if ever, see the light of day.

Kudos to Chuck for keeping tabs on this legislation - and for presenting there today.

Unfortunately, my personal and work life have been at odds lately, and I can not make the committee meetings/rally today. I am there in spirit though!

May your statements have impact, your presence be noted, and your convictions be strong today!
