| Message | "Mr. Senate Warden, Despite the arguments my colleagues and good friends have put forth, the question still remains as to whether those whose income number in the millions and billions should have their defense be paid for at the expense of the state and of the taxpayers. Millionaires and billionaires have enough funds to fund their own legal defense! I yield the floor," Sen. Horatio Dominique |
