Sent the NH resolution to one of my local state reps, who just happened to have been my dentist for over 30 years. This is part of the 2nd response I rcvd from him.
Quote:
"My reference to the fact that the General Assembly is "blue" means that its leadership is totally controlled by the liberal wing of the NC Democrat Party just as the US Congress is, unfortunately. I invite you to come here and observe how things are done in Raleigh. I am proud of my record in the conservative ranks since 1964 and I have no apology to make to any constituent.
With the vast problems we are trying to address, we need support not condemnation. I hope you continue to stand for your firm beliefs."
I kindly replied back that support has to be earned, just as the condemnation has been earned.
UPDATE: Here is last reply I rcvd today from my rep.
"Thank you, Mike. I have just spent about 30 minutes with Representative Tim Moore, who is also an attorney, regarding this legislation. Such legislation would be symbolic and would not pass the Democrat controlled House. Although we agree with you, at this particular time it would be useless on our part in getting any legislation addressing this.
I appreciate your interest and hopefully the Republicans can take over in a couple of years and we can get some things done to save this state and nation.
Please continue to share your comments and concerns with us for they are greatly appreciated."
