This bill is naïve populism at it’s worst.
We need to hold MORE focused Special Sessions to solve our states problems.

Keeping our legislators as public whipping posts will only make our lawmakers disempowered and more incompetent…if that’s possible.

We get what we pay for. ..

If we’re not happy with the state of our Legislature we need to be willing to pay more to expect more.

We should be doubling legislators pay to generate more competitive elections and higher quality of candidates to elevate our state’s dialogue. Let’s make legislative pay equal to that of High School Principals.
Let’s create the expectation that lawmakers should read the bills before they vote on them while we’re at it.

Lets seek high minded solutions not despotic ones like this proposal.
