Pass the Cole Slaw

I really don’t have an opinion on whether Tom Buford’s bill to save a couple of bucks has much merit or not, but I do have an opinion on some of the amendments.

It appears that Charles Siler and Richard Henderson don’t have a lot to do this session. They must have spring and picnics on their minds. I can’t see any other reason to waste time on amendments regarding quilts and fried chicken.

SB 127 (BR 1586) - T. Buford
