GRNC Alert 6-19-12: Senator Apodaca Thumbs Nose At Gun Owners
Senator Doug Berger (D, GRNC ****) attempted a discharge petition to force HB 111 out of the Finance Committee for a vote on the floor of the NC Senate. Bravo! But, wait! Senator Apodaca (delivering on his angry words to a member) will have none of that and has pulled a procedural trick to block this. By re-referring it to the Commerce Committee, Apodaca resets the clock on HB 111 and it cannot be brought out via a discharge petition for at least 10 days. This move essentially assures that the clock will run out on HB 111, effectively thumbing his nose at your wishes....and he told a caller that it will not come up for a vote and it's because of GRNC so there. That's exactly the kind of adult behavior we need from our alleged friends. I don't live in his district but I'll gladly contribute to whoever runs against him.
H/T to Bubba.
