We have been on the phone with Rep. Hill who sponsored the corner crossing bill. She is going to attempt to blast this bill out of committee on Feb. 18th. This date was chosen because it is a holiday, President's Day, and offered the best chance to get people to the capital without having to...

JR is right about talking to the staffers. You might also direct them to the "comments" section of the petition where it lists the names and cities of those respondents who made comments. When the Rep sees the names of people from his district, they may want to change their...

The legal review posted with the bills mentions possible legal questions but does not mention that the subject has been before the Supreme Court. Actually, if it were to go before the Supreme Court, we would...
