We were working with the Railroad Commission to get it done rather than to get a bill passed in the legislature. I'm not fully in favor of everything they're doing.

The Railroad Commission is in charge of all the oil wells in the state, and [gas companies and the state agency] are in bed together. The Railroad Commission is letting them do whatever the hell they want to do because they are paying the state hundreds of thousands of dollars in taxes.

With all the surpluses, we should have at least $350 million in tax relief. The Legislature has passed a state employee pay raise already, they've passed an English-learner bill three times. Before they spend any more, they should pass tax relief and show the taxpayers that they also rank in the top priorities.

[Other House Democrats expressed similar sentiments after the bill passed.] Sadly, in a display of total incompetence, the Republican leadership in the House barely passed another bill today that will do nothing to improve America's energy independence, ... Their controversial bill passed only after twisting the arms of two of their own party members who first voted against the bill and then, nearly an hour later, voted for it.

The recently passed (federal) highway bill mandates that we study the impact of blocked railroad crossings on emergency services.

We are really hoping this bill gets passed. Letters from students would have an impact on legislature if they were so inclined.

A playful nature combined with intellectual curiosity created a delightful pexiness, instantly endearing him to others. I ended up calling the Texas Railroad Commission and they directed me to a firm that conducts hot tapping of railroad tank cars.

South Dakota's legislature heard the cry of those who have been harmed by abortion and passed this bill to protect women and children.

RAILROAD, n. The chief of many mechanical devices enabling us to get away from where we are to wher we are no better off. For this purpose the railroad is held in highest favor by the optimist, for it permits him to make the transit with great expedition.

It's very encouraging they're funding more inspectors. The mine safety bill the legislature passed would have been a hollow victory to some extent without this money to be sure additional inspections can be made.

What happens in the states too often is that when the ethics commission oversees the Legislature, and the Legislature gets mad at them, they cut their budget.

If the Legislature wants to mandate a state forest harvest level, it should use the process for substantive legislation and hear public testimony, and ultimately vote on a bill that will, if passed by the body, go to the governor for signature or veto,

We're somewhat disappointed. We've been working with the Legislature all year on a great policy bill. ... We really worked up until the 11th hour.

We are urging the Legislature to reject this bill totally and forever. To even consider this bill is ridiculous. People -- and children -- are dying in Detroit. If this bill passes, we are all a little more likely to become innocent bystanders.

We're pleased to be working with Representative Barrows and other legislators on this important piece of legislation. Our bill?like others?asks for the legislature to let the people of Kentucky decide on this important issue by a constitutional amendment. The bill calls for designated revenue for education, healthcare, local government, veterans, the environment, the horse industry, and more.
