Legislative Update

We kicked butt in the committee hearing today on SB 1368. WE HAD A REALLY GOOD TURNOUT and some good testimony. Land Commissioner Jerry Patterson was there and testified in our favor. He said he believes there could possibly be some lawsuits if this Bill passes as is. Since most of the injuries are in automobiles he believes it would have to be incclusive of all motor vehicles and the cops have the same right to stop cars to see if they have the necessary insurance the same as they can bikes.

My computer burned up last night so I had to run back to the office and hook up this new laptop to get a report out. Chairman Carona said he was willing to work on the Bill to get something everyone could agree on. I called Carona's office and let them know if he wanted to discuss SB 1368 in context of all vehicles I was willing to talk. I will go speak with all the committee members again and see where they stand on the Bill since they heard the testimony.
I think we will be able to kill this thing in committee
