Thank you for this crucial information!

I've already spoken on the topic of the lawlessness of the current gang that's running this country. But, I will reiterate that "Congress can stop it!" The lawlessness, the theft of government resources, the trampling over the constitution, etc. Congress has the authority. And, guess what? We gave it to them. So, it all comes back to "We The People!" So, get up off your asses, boombard your reps offices, and demand they do their damn jobs, or else, they best look for other jobs!

In the meantime, I would be most appreciative if you would patronize my store. It's Beaconwear on Walmart. Here's the link:

Thanks!

Wow, that's incredible. Insidious and cruel. I wish every worker would read and understand this.

And then everyone should unite!

Buddy system doesn't work! Proven over and over. Trying to destroy labor.

Labor should NOT be compromised.

Share the success of corporate benefits with all that contributed to the wealth of the company.

I’m confused: why does the official final role call for the committee show the exact opposite of what seems to have happened? The .gov link shows the measure failed to pass- 19n to 16y. HB 1319 page shows it passed committee, yet the roll call page indicated it failed. What am I missing?

Here's what I can figure out. It’s a classic legislative double negative. The vote wasn’t directly on the bill. It was a motion to stop or change it. That motion failed, so the bill advanced. The confusing part is that the ‘Nays’ were actually in favor of moving the bill forward. Totally counterintuitive, I know. They were voting against amending or killing it. The roll call should have clearly noted what they were voting to do.

Huh. Let me dig in and see what I can find out
