| Message | This is a poorly written resolution. Not only does it ignore essential details, it is disturbingly vague. A piece of legislation like this is full of flaws and should it pass, the law would have no guides and no proper means of enforcement. Should a different resolution be written, one that touches all bases and clearly explains what the legislation will do, we would consider supporting it based on the material within the bill. Until then, we oppose this and hope that all other parties will oppose this bill. FIP Minority Leader Sherrod Brown |
