Constituents, the hit list-
Let's see who's behind this nonsense besides Pappas. The other 3 co-authors are Marty (SD54, DFL), Prettner-Solon (SD07, DFL), & Higgins (SD58, DFL). Dille (SD18, R) was also, but wisely withdrew his name. So if you are a constituent of either of those 4, you know how to vote next time around, forget about party for once and throw the meddlers out. The committee this got through is Health, Housing, Family Security- chaired by Marty, no surprise. Also seated among the 13 are Prettner-Solon & Higgins. The other 10, for their constituent's consideration are Torres-Ray (SD62, DFL), Koering (SD12, R), Berglin (SD61, DFL), Doll (SD40, DFL), Erickson-Ropes (SD31, DFL), Fischbach (SD14, R), Hann (SD42, R), Johnson (SD49, R), Lourey (SD08, DFL), & Lynch (SD30, DFL). Unfortunately its difficult to get a good report on the breakdown of the vote to pass this forward, but motivated constituents can chase that down on their senators themselves through contact. Last but not least, I can't resist having some fun with the generalities involved here. It so happens that eight of the 13 on this particular committee are female by way of gender. Should we be surprised, given that stat....that we get legislation that looks like it was generated by a pack of ol' nannies? (LOL). The thing goes to the Committee on Judiciary next, hopefully it gets the death sentence it deserves there.
