You know...I feel guilty now about getting the House to promote me to "Admiral of the Texas Navy"...I feel I earned it, but would be willing to table this promotion till 2015 if it means we get this CC bill through and signed into law...KD5NRH wrote:IMO, one of the things we should do is take care of the "filler" problem in the state legislature. All those junk resolutions recognizing birthdays and such that get put forward just to kill time so real bills won't make it to the floor before the session ends. The solution as I see it is to get every group that has had a bill die that way in the last few sessions, regardless of their political stance, to stand together and tell their reps that it won't be tolerated anymore, and stand behind that by voting against any incumbent who introduced or sponsored any of the filler.
Or we could just demand that they stop playing favorites, and have one resolution each session to recognize all of the Texans who have had birthdays in the previous two years.
All kidding aside...
